Will be fixed by next release. For the time being, change rc.eselect:214 to be [[ ${#@}-gt 1]] instead of [[ ${#@} -gt 1 ]] Thanks for reporting this bug!
Lets keep these open, as technically the issues are not fixed until the next release is in the tree.
1.0_rc1 is in cvs. Please test and reopen if necessary.
