System: Athlon 1ghz, 768mb RAM, 8mb Diamond Speedstar Video, Adaptec 2940U2W + 36gb Scsi HD

Gentoo installed fine last nite, including the 'emerge sync' command.

After a reboot to verify functionality (all looks well), I typed in:
'emerge kde'
and went to bed.

Here is the compile error I saw when I woke up this morning:
xftint.h:392: pase error before '*' token
{more errors like this one}
!!! ebuild did not complete succesfully
!!! function kde_src_compile Line -6658 Exit Code 2
!!! died while running emake, kde_src_compile: make

Any ideas?????????

System: PIII 666 Mhz, 256mb RAM, 8mb S3 Trio3D (S3 Virge (Generic)), ...

Gentoo installed from stage3-pentium3.tar.bz2 (not run emerge sync)

emerge x11-base/xfree succesfully

Xfree86 working properly.

emerge kde-base/kde : fails exactly with same error.
