Fresh install of a system, trying to update world, and make fails to emerge:

emerge --info '=dev-build/make-4.4.1-r1::gentoo'

emerge -pqv '=dev-build/make-4.4.1-r1::gentoo':
Code:

[ebuild   R   ] dev-build/make-4.4.1-r1  USE="nls verify-sig* -doc -guile -static -test"


/var/tmp/portage/dev-build/make-4.4.1-r1/temp/build.log

this happens both when emerging the new (~4.4.1-r100) version, and rebuilding the stable 4.4.1-r1 version (seen in above logs).

in both cases, the package fails to install due to severe errors:
Code:

i could override these warnings but it seems wrong to do so, and that they shouldn't be occuring in a well maintained package like make

any help is appreciated

I suggest not using FEATURES=stricter. I don't think any developers use it and it would need to be reworked for suitability to actually abort before emerging a package just because of warnings. The list that we maintain for said warnings is for QA notices rather than intended to abort, it's some legacy leftover functionality we've not really tended to.

That said, if you want, feel free to report the issues upstream.
