   Apparently, stddef.h belongs to linux-headers. So, try emerging   
   linux-headers (emerge linux-headers, should be an unpack-only merge; it   
   should not need to compile anything) and then try an emerge -uDvNt world   
   again.

   A bit of googling seems to suggest that's something related to libpthreads.   
   Just a shot in the dark: after emerging linux-headers, try emerging gcc   
   (before emerging world).
