I'm also able to reproduce the failure. The situation, as far as I can
see,is as follow:
The problem was reported in bug #160637[1]. The maintainer solution[2]
applied was patch the ebuild to check if epoll support was enabled in
the kernel.
Ebuild works just fine, detecting if the kernel has the epoll support
enabled[3] and adding the proper --enable-epoll in that case.
So if the kernel has support for it, the problem should be in a
different place, probably glibc or linux-headers. I found a test case[4]
you can run just compiling it.
Later, I'll reopen the bug and see if one of our toolchain ninjas can
give it a try.
As a workaround, you can disable the epoll support commenting out the
"myconf ..." line in the ebuild (not tested but should work).
Thanks for reporting,
Regards.
