I have

-vanilla)

But only one version of sys-libs/bin-utils-libs

But I found binutils-config and just switched from 2.25-r1 to 2.27, so
I will see what happens.
So, after removing the old versions of binutils, the preserved-rebuild
problem went away!

Thanks all for all your help on that .  Now I have to somehow deal
with the gst-plugins-ffmpeg.
