Which package is failing? Please check if it is already reported, and if not then please report a new bug, and if possible make it block this tracker bug: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=331665 A wild guess out of the blue would be that the error could be simply a missing include of stat.h in the package's sources. But there might be other omissions as well, so please provide more info. I think that unless API/ABIs were changed then the older, already installed version should still work just fine, as then the missing includes would only affect compile-time situation. -- Arttu V. -- Running Gentoo is like running with scissors
