I got some big troubles with the Compiling process in my new computer:

AMD Athlon XP 2200+
Biostar M7VKQ
256 133MHz SDRAM
Maxtor 40GB HD
The CPU Bus 133MHz, PCI Bus 33MHz

Using stage3 tarball....

That's is the weird stuff.... I changed my motherboard twice (thinking about a MB error or failure) and the same error occurs in the moment, when I start compiling everything works fine, but when the time has passed the GCC returns segmentation fault in the compiling, each time I try to emerge again (emerge -u world) the errors occurs in a different line of code or in different source file.... (really, I don't know what's the trouble!)....

I'm using the standard flags for the compiler in make.conf (changed nothing)....

I changed the memory twice....

What's my trouble?.... Is Athlon not designed for GCC?.... Heeeeeeelpppp pleaseeeeee!!!!...

Random segfaults are indications of hardware problems, as you know.

Some of the possible failures:
1) Motherboard
2) Memory
3) Processor

You've changed the first two, but the third remains. Also the hard drive, but I don't think that would contribute to segfaults...I'm not the expert there.

I'm happily using Athlons, so the problem isn't that Athlons just don't work.

If you compiled gcc using insane CFLAGS, that could also cause problems.

what exactly are your CFLAGS? You should have something like
Code:
CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe"

for fairly modest fail-safe CFLAGS. Otherwise, emerge clean, emerge sync, emerge -u world and try again.

Exactly....
only:
CFLAGS="-s -mcpu=athlon-xp -O2 -pipe"

and

CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"

By the way.....
I changed my motherboard too.... (the same model, same stuff).... and guess what.... It doesn't work.... changed the memory.... it didn't work.... and, of course... I changed my processor to a new one (2200+)... exactly... it didn't work too....

Help please!!!

As I pointed out earlier, you haven't tried replacing the processor itself yet.
