Everything was working fine after the install (with the exception of my eth0, which i managed to fix), but now whenever i try to emerge something, it either hangs at:
"checking for ld used by GCC"
(sits there for hours)...
- happens with Apache/KDE/Gnome

or throws me an error message such as:
"make: *** [install] Error1

!!! ERROR: <packagename> failed.
!!! Function <functionname>, Line <##>, Exitcode <#>
!!! (no error message)"

Sounds like either make or gcc or maybe both are borked... but I'm a total beginner when it comes to Linux, so I don't really know...

You guys have any ideas?

Have you recently updated gcc or binutils? You might want to try running

Code:
# env-update && source /etc/profile


as root. That will update ld.so.cache (shared library cache) and other environment stuff. Give that a shot and try again. Post back if you still have problems.

HTH.

I have no upgraded gcc or binutils...

I tried the env-update and source... but that didn't fix it for me...

Thanks for trying though...

Any other ideas?
