yep I'm building a minimized system for a firewall with hardened kernel
sources but with the regular (default) compiler... I did get
adventurous this time around and set the (PIC) flag just for grins.
Who knows, maybe the next time, I'll build a fully Hardened system....

I ran a 'emerge -a --depclean and that removed the old gcc 3.4
Settings must have not been happy at this point.

Here's the details of what I did to fix it

# source /etc/profile <just to be sure>

# gcc-config 1
* Switching native-compiler to i586-pc-linux-gnu-4.1.2 ...
* Your gcc has a bug with GCC_SPECS.
* Please re-emerge gcc.
* http://bugs.gentoo.org/68395

Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache... [ ok ]

* If you intend to use the gcc from the new profile in an already
* running shell, please remember to do:
* # source /etc/profile

# unset GCC_SPECS && emerge gcc"

All seems to be compiling on an old pentium......

thanks Mark (&Greg)
