Right

It seems it's a Gentoo problem, cause it passes all tests in make
check if  I execute it by hand...

The only difference at plain sight is that everything is built in a
sandbox, but apart of that, everything's the same...

I'll dig in a little bit more on this, and go back to you if anything
else comes up.

Thanks for the quick responses. If someone comes out with a possible
solution don't forget to mail me.

Tomas
