Apache 1.3.33 emerge fails while making mod_rewrite

Hi folks

I've got a new box that is failing whilst installing Apache 1.3.33

Emerge command is

asgard apache_1.3.33 # emerge apache

Error is

gcc -c  -I../../os/unix -I../../include  -O2 -march=pentium4 -pipe -DHARD_SE
RVER_LIMIT=512              -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE

!!! problem compiling apache
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status
message.

A google dug up this entry in the apache archive (
http://archive.apache.org/gnats/7772) but seeing as that was entered in
2001, I'd hoped it was fixed.

I found reports of a similar error under other distro's which related to
using new versions of gcc, but I can't see a way to  force it to use an
older version of gcc.

TIA
