This is known and well-discussed, and I applied the 'fix' and it works.
Gentoo compiles beat the tarnation out of some cpu's -- slow your computer down by 25--33% when compiling, and maybe speed it back up when done. If you do not have a computer that permits on-the-fly adjustment, this does mean from your BIOS.
Frankly, my AMD XP2700+ runs everything under Gentoo -- *not* extremely optimized! -- faster at 2100+ then I *was* getting with anything else (several distros) at the 2700+ setting; and at full goose.....!! !!
(Twice in a row this rears its ugly little head...)
