This came unexpectedly. An excerpt from compile.log is posted
below. (I'll post more if necessary of course.) I'm not very experienced
with C compilers in general and gcc in particular so I hope for some
directions on what the cause of the issue might be. I tried removing
CFLAGS settings from make.conf, to no effect.
(CFLAGS is `-march=native -O2 -pipe')
I upgraded GCC recently; world, kernel rebuilt successfully and gcc had
been working just fine for some time since then.

I did not do anything particularly weird with the system that could
cause this. However,
(1) I do use a somewhat old profile:
hardened/linux/amd64 (stable).
(2) I recently had a build conflict with
util-linux and rfkill: the latter had been included in the former but I
was not aware of that at the time and updated some packages (don't
remember which ones) while masking the corresponding util-linux version
and newer versions. Still, it was a normal portage update and no
warnings were issued.
(3) The kernel sources used are non-standard.

A relevant bit from compile.log (the package is sys-apps/file):
