Ok great, I just changed that and am emerging GAIM as we speak. The
emerge process has gone for longer that it ever has - i.e. it used to
cut out with emake errors so this seems to have fixed it... as it would
make sense to.

Question, should I be re-emerging any/all of my packages with the
correct make.conf? or just an emerge sync with the new .conf? It occurs
to me that if Gentoo had been using the wrong make configurations for
all my emerges then there will be unknown problems all over the system?

P.S. Thanks a lot for your help Leif.
