:-) I don't think anyone here has a Gentoo system so first we start by
asking questions.

Can you recreate this build manually? Probably the best place to
start is to get a current copy of the package and build it yourself.
Because to debug this we will want to see what is happening in the
test. After building if you could send us the debug output from the
test it would be good.
env DEBUG=yes VERBOSE=yes make check -C tests/shred TESTS=exact
Send us that output. It will show the details of the test. But if it
the shred program core dumping then that would probably take a more
detailed look at the shred program itself, if that is the one dumping.
If you have the capability of running the debugger to find out why it
is having a problem that would be good. But I suggest starting with
the test details first.
Thanks
