I tried something different. I tried to run emerge with Cygwins
precompiled python.

In this case I get a related but different error:

fatal error - unable to map
\\?\F:\cygwin\lib\pyhton2.6\lib-dynload\time.dll to same address as
parent:

0x330000 != 0x3A0000

What does this mean? Is there a naming conflict between pythons
time.dll and a time.dll of the windows system?
