Your filesystem doesn't have xattr support, but portage is trying to set extended attributes on a file. You might want to enable extended attributes on the filesystem in question, or if you have a good reason for disabling them, setting FEATURES="-xattr" in make.conf will make the warnings go away. > Why is it asking for it? Only a guess: those packages try to do funny stuff at runtime and need special exceptions on hardened systems. The exceptions get stored as extended attributes when PAX_MARKINGS="XT" (this may be/become default).
