This goes for any version of Perl from 5.8.0-r9 to some version of 5.8.1, the specific of which escapes me.

Performing emerge perl results in a large set of checks, one of which results in ext/IO/lib/IO/t/io_sock..............Died at ../ext/IO/lib/IO/t/io_sock.t line 35, <GEN5> line 2."

Below, line 35 is the commented one,
"eval {
$SIG{ALRM} = sub { die; }; # Line 35
alarm 120;
};"

I haven't been able to track down SIG or ALRM as it relates to this case.

If it's in any way helpful, here's my emerge info:

What I'd like to do at this phase, on a whim, is a clean install of each of Perl's dependencies, and/or a clean install of whatever is being called in the exec section, but I'm not sure what those are (or how to find those out), but I'm wide open to any suggestions at this stage.

I took a closer look at it, and fiddled with the source code, and it looks like the relevant message is not what's listed above, but "Failed at test 12." I haven't been able to track down what test 12 is, as there's a bunch of references to the variable that keep changing it.

I've tried re-emerging gcc and glibc, as a Google search seemed to recommend. I also tried emerge -uD perl and emerge -e world, but those got the same result.
