hmmm, this one fails for me during actuall merge to the live filesystem stage:

resulting in a nice incomplete merge... :(

on linux this symlink appears to point into the blue as well, although the
shell
doesn't really 'see' the link is dead... weird.

I seem to have this behaviour on my Tiger system, too.

- Is it possible to emerge special packages to detect invalid links in gentoo?

- Perhaps this problem should assigned to the package maintainers, or a new bug
should be opened.
The text-markup herd should be appropriate for this app.

I'm fixing this at the very moment.  The symlinks are just copied over, but
their actual targets aren't

Fixed.  As ~ppc-macos in portage
