build problems under gentoo

Hello,
    I am not able to properly build the helix server under
gentoo linux.
Kernel: 2.6
building with either
gcc-3.3.6
or
gcc-3.4.5
failed on libbfd.a

this library is part of the gentoo binutils package
the build is looking for it under /usr/lib
but cannot find it.... playing with paths did not make any
difference....
i.e. setting the LDPATH or the LIBPATH for the user that is
compiling or
in /etc/env.d for the version of gcc
I finally reated symbolic links to the whole binutils
package from 
/usr/lib and that finally
had the build find it....

BUT now I am getting more error messages....
I have included the relevant section of build.out.... at the
end of this 
message

Is there anyone out there who knows about this problem or
has an idea 
what to do about it.
THanks
Nakul
 
and here is the relevant section of build.out.

What branch are you building?  Can you provide the first 100
lines or
so of your build.out log file?
