before i added binutils-2.17, i ran `make check` on it for about 25 targets ... of those, about 10 failed ... i checked with upstream and others reproduced it ... i dont know about you, but i dont have the skills to go in and fix the failures for all of those architectures while i like the idea of all packages being able to pass FEATURES=test, somethings it just aint gonna happen with Gentoo's available skill set -mike
