i tried the tarball contained here https://z.cash/download.html
and followed instructions there.. now i've got my node up and running.

@darkicekeel: what gcc compiler version were you using?

[darkicekeel]

emerge --info:

sys-devel/gcc: 4.9.4::gentoo, 5.4.0-r3::gentoo

I've a working ebuild here in my overlay. But don't trust me though, review everything before emerging it. Enjoy!

Cheers.

@darkicekeel Does the above ebuild patch fix things for you?
