Nano print out strange codes

Hi!
I Have a problem with nano. Probably after an emerge It starte do behave
abnormally. If I try to edit text with it it print out strange codes (click
below to see a screenshot):

and when I close it the console look like this:

Anyone knows how to fix that? I badly need nano for editing my config
files...coz I'm too stupid for Vi and can't use Kate or similar programs just
to do fast modifies on my files :-)

Thank you!

It looks as random overflow/screw in nano (or xtrem, less likely).
Did you try `emerge nano` lately?

What does `grep CFLAGS /etc/make.conf` say? too much optimizations?

If you're nano is compiled with the debug use-flag, try recompiling it
without it[1], either unset the debug flag globally or use
/etc/portage/package.use.

What the heck were you doing with debug set globally anyway?

Well...I thought it was useful when kde appz are crashing...to send bug
report... But I think I'm wrong :)
