Various [Gentoo Linux](http://www.gentoo.org/) ebuilds, to provide out-of-tree packages and miscellaneous fixes.

# Fixes for compiling prefix packages under Mac OS using LLVM/clang

Some packages will fail with `illegal instruction: 4` if compiled with compiler-optimisations enabled.  To work around this on a per-package basis:

```
mkdir ${EPREFIX}/etc/portage/env

cat > ${EPREFIX}/etc/portage/env/debug <<EOF

# Assuming that clang is now default...

#CC="/opt/gentoo/usr/bin/clang"
#CXX="/opt/gentoo/usr/bin/clang++"

CFLAGS="-arch x86_64 -march=x86-64"
#CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -mmacosx-version-min=${MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET}"
CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -fcolor-diagnostics -ftrapv -O0 -g -pipe"

CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
#CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -stdlib=libstdc++"

#LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -stdlib=libstdc++"

MAKEOPTS="-j1"

#PKGDIR="${PORTDIR}/packages/clang"

# vi: set syntax=conf:
EOF

cat >> ${EPREFIX}/etc/portage/package.env <<EOF
~dev-lang/perl-5.18.2  debug
~dev-lang/python-2.7.5 debug
~dev-libs/icu-51.2     debug
EOF
```

# Fixes for MIPS n32 and x86_64 x32 ABIs

Included is a modified `eclass/multilib.eclass` that no longer overrides any amd64 `LIBDIR_*` environment variables, which may now usefully be set in `/etc/portage/make.conf`.  For this to work universally, you may need to edit `/etc/portage/repos.conf` and add:

```
[DEFAULT]
eclass-overrides = srcshelton
```

... to ensure that main-repo ebuilds benefit from the change.  The `LIBDIR` variables, and their default values, are:

```
LIBDIR_amd64="lib64"
LIBDIR_x32="libx32"
LIBDIR_x86="lib"
SYMLINK_LIB="yes"
```

... noting that `SYMLINK_LIB` defaults to `"no"` (e.g. do not try to symlink `/lib` and `/usr/lib` to the library directory which the ABI actually uses) for x32 profiles, and that these variables only affect multilib systems.

* app-admin/monit
    * Add required `--with-ssl-lib-dir` option
* app-crypt/mit-krb5
    * Ensure that AES assembly is built for x32 rather than amd64
* app-antivirus/clamav

* dev-db/libdbi-drivers
    * Add required `--with-dbi-libdir` option
* dev-lang/ruby
    * Avoid inline assembly with x32 ABI
* net-analyzer/arp-sk
    * Look for libnet in the appropriate "libdir" rather than `lib`
* net-dns/bind-tools
    * Correct many instances of hard-coded references to `lib`
* net-misc/miniupnpd
    * Prevent use of 'sysctl' syscall (which specifically errors on x32, but is deprecated for all ABIs)
* sys-apps/baselayout
    * Don't error-out if using `lib32` for x32 libraries
* sys-apps/cpuid
    * Don't use 64-bit assembly if `__ILP32__` is defined
* sys-devel/binutils
    * Allow `LIBDIR_*` variables to override hard-coded default directory locations
* sys-devel/gcc
    * Allow `LIBDIR_*` variables to override hard-coded default directory locations

* sys-apps/openrc
