Trying to emerge hwinfo I get the error output inlined below.
I see a list of warnings about undeclared this and that coming from
the src files but not sure what it means.

Anyone here that can recognize what the problem is?

see bug 236449 on b.g.o.

recent kernel headers renamed some things and breaks the code.

a patched ebuild is available.

I'm not sure where to look for such a thing. I'm running `~86' and that
apparently wasn't enough to catch it

Oh... I liked you sig a lot

b.g.o. = bugs.gentoo.org
Here's a direct link http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=236449

Unfortunately downgrading to x86 versions of hwinfo won't help here,
the problem is that your kernel headers are too new. If you don't feel
comfortable maintaining a new overlay, I think if you wait a bit the
new ebuild should get in the tree in a few days.

What is the meaning of Life?

To search for truth and beauty.
To ask questions.
To find the answer to this question
To rigorously mathematically prove by epislon-delta treatment that this
question has no answer. Proof? For all oranges greater than zero, there exists
a banana such that for all fruits tastier than the banana, an orange sweeter
than a banana implies the orange is yellow. So by the Jedi-Schwartz Inequality,
all oranges are not orange. This leads to an obvious contradiction.

It's too bad life is a departmental requirement, otherwise I'd P/D/F it.
