For anyone else who hits this sort of problem, I did an

touch), and it worked.
There were a couple of other programs that I guess got pulled in by the
changed use, but they've upgraded which is the main thing.
Thank you very much

This is a known problem. It generally shows itself with older
architectures like AMD Phenom II, Bulldozer, Intel Core 2 etc.
"-march=native" in the make.conf file was the culprit, IIRC, and replacing
it with core2 or amd's equivalent option solved it. I, instead, put
"-clang" in my package.use file, for firefox. No problem with Firefox
builds since then.
The CPU of the machine in question is in deed an old AMD. It's good to
know the reason for that build-failures, thanks a lot.
I certainly will stick to "-clang" in my package.use.
