What's the current state of Arduino on Gentoo?

I know (through simple discovery) that I can't simply "emerge arduino"
and expect things to work. I know, because they don't, and I've
already found these references:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=340042
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=378387
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=377039

and

http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Crossdev#AVR_Architecture

(the instructions for which don't currently work)

I built an arduino dev environment on gentoo not too long ago, and the
only real complication was finding a the right combination of cross
compiled libc/gcc/other libs that the arduino was happy with.  When
not compiling for the arduino, I also have an arduino powered makerbot
3d printer which sometimes benefits from the standard arduino tools
and which works perfectly with gentoo.

What issues are you having?

There is a very helpful arduino channel on freenode irc that could
probably help you solve most issues.

In any case, I have the following installed here:
