Most cases this error happens after you updated the GNU GCC (this update triggers the error, but it might be not the problem)! This was the case with us we updated the GNU GCC and then wanted to update QT libraries and several packages were built OK, but then this error occurred when compiling dev-qt/qtgui.

The problem is that it cannot be true, stdlib.h cannot be missing in our installation and indeed it appears the file is there:
srv.local ~ # find /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/|grep stdlib.h /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/5.4.0/include/g++-v5/tr1/stdlib.h /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.2.0/include/g++-v7/tr1/stdlib.h /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.2.0/include/g++-v7/stdlib.h /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/8.2.0/include/g++-v8/tr1/stdlib.h /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/8.2.0/include/g++-v8/stdlib.h /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.3.0/include/g++-v7/tr1/stdlib.h /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.3.0/include/g++-v7/stdlib.h /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.9.4/include/g++-v4/tr1/stdlib.h /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/6.4.0/include/g++-v6/tr1/stdlib.h /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/6.4.0/include/g++-v6/stdlib.h
And you can see that there are two locations as for the last 3 major GNU GCC releases.
So the problem looks like the wrong configuration of GNU GCC – wrong include configuration or not including all directories.
After some googling we found that there was a bad version of dev-util/meson package, which generated broken pkgconfig files (.pc files in “/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/”) in some packages’ builds!
The solution is:
- Install the latest dev-util/meson
- Rebuild all the packages installed with the old one. If you do not know which one you can search them in “/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/” with:
grep "I/usr/include/\B" /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/*.pc
Here is the bug filed in Gentoo: https://bugs.gentoo.org/649264#c4
So after some tests here is what worked for us:
srv.local ~ # emerge -v meson These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

And after that, we were able to successfully build and install “dev-qt/qtgui”
* Bonus 1
If the problem still persists and you get the above error
the real problem (which the above package recompilation eliminates) is using GNU GCC with “-isystem” for system libraries
Unfortunately, we did not manage to solve the problem except just editing the source of QT libraries and replacing the value of variable QMAKE_CFLAGS_ISYSTEM from “-isystem” to “-I” in gcc-base.conf.
So, edit the source file and create a new ebuild or just when the file is unpacking you must edit the “/var/tmp/portage/dev-qt/qtgui-5.11.1/work/qtbase-everywhere-src-5.11.1/mkspecs/common/gcc-base.conf”:
QMAKE_CFLAGS_ISYSTEM = -I
How did we compile it successfully without creating a new package?
- copy the original file “/var/tmp/portage/dev-qt/qtgui-5.11.1/work/qtbase-everywhere-src-5.11.1/mkspecs/common/gcc-base.conf”
- edit the QMAKE_CFLAGS_ISYSTEM in the copied file
- execute “emerge -v dev-qt”
- right after emerge reports the successful unpack you must press ctrl+z to stop temporary the execution of the emerge command
- replace the orginal with the modified version in /var/tmp/portage/dev-qt/qtgui-5.11.1/work/qtbase-everywhere-src-5.11.1/mkspecs/common/gcc-base.conf
- in the same bash console execute “fg” to continue the execution of the emerge command.
Replace the qtgui-5.11.1 with the specific package and version in your case.
Of course, you may want to just continue your current build manually executing the “emerge” commands following Resume compilation of a package from where it failed under Gentoo
You should also edit the file “/usr/lib64/qt5/mkspecs/common/gcc-base.conf”, which is installed in your system! It also contains “QMAKE_CFLAGS_ISYSTEM” and it should be set to “-I” as above (only if you continue receiving the error).
* Bonus 2
In one of our system appeared that the above solution did not help. After building the above proposed packages it still got the same error (fatal error: stdlib.h: No such file or directory) building “dev-qt/qtgui”. So here what we did:
First we tried to rebuild all the dependencies of the currently installed “dev-qt/qtgui-5.11.1”

So the file “stdlib.h” is not found and is not searched in the directory where it is located (above there is search example)
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/8.2.0/include/g++-v8/tr1/stdlib.h /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/8.2.0/include/g++-v8/stdlib.h
We even recompile all world packages with:
eix -u --only-names|sort|uniq|grep -v kde|while read one; do emerge -v "$one"; emerge -v --nodeps =dev-qt/qtwidgets-5.11.1; rm -R /var/tmp/portage/*;done
So rebuilding all packages and after each package we tried to rebuild the “=dev-qt/qtwidgets-5.11.1” (don’t ask, just we have a really fast and multi processors and cores idling machine ) and after the last package we still got the same error! Then someone found this mega (mega because look how many dependency it has – 27 other bugs depend on it) bug report https://bugs.gentoo.org/666134 (look at the end of this article if this URL does not work any more) and YES our
GLIBC was 2.28!
Meanwhile there was a newer glibc 2.28-r5 (which includes some of the bug fixes) and a newer gcc-8.2.0-r6. So we rebuilt the linux-headers, then glibc and the last GCC (this order is important -> linux-headers -> glibc -> gcc):

Then we tried again with “dev-qt/qtcore-5.11.1-r1” (because we were stuck with this QT version all other packages were this version and we wanted to know if there is still this bug) with NO SUCCESS
This time another error

This is one of the bugs, which glibc mega bug depends on (the https://bugs.gentoo.org/666134 look at the end of this article if this URL does not work any more)
