aspell package broken?

[mt99]

Has anyone had problems (like me) with aspell-0.50.3 package (necessary to get evolution). It breaks seemingly right at the end of the emerge process, on linking. The last words of the process are:

...

Linking errors are so spurious that I cannot (and would not for fear of flaming) post all of them. How bad is this and how do I fix it? I have a mediocre knowledge of Portage internals.

Cheers,
