What kind of help would you like? You have a separate thread open for the reported gcc-4.7 crash. You could try using gcc-4.8 or gcc-4.9 if you cannot build gcc-4.7.

I'm trying to emerge webkit-gtk.

It refuses to install because its says I need clang > 3.0 I have clang 3.3 installed I can't get gcc 4.7 to install because compiling it crashes my system.

so how do emerge webkit-gtk?

Despite your very old join date, you still are bad about not posting useful information. I assume you are referring to the error message "You need at least GCC 4.7.x or Clang >= 3.3 for C++11-specific compiler flags" (not clang 3.0 as you said). If so, then according to the surrounding logic in the ebuild, you need to set your system compiler to one which understands the option -std=c++11. If you do not want to set the active compiler to clang, then you could try my prior suggestion of using a newer version of gcc.

gcc version 4.8 and 4.9 are not considered stable in my build tree.

equery is giving me the error
