fix is easy though:
either inherit findlib eclass and call findlib_src_preinst to get the sane
variables exported. But this way (because the eclass suck) you'll get mandatory
dep on findlib, so that's probably no good.

So, its probably better to just copy the stuff from findlib_src_presinst before
make install. Btw, if I hit that, dev-ml/findlib dep is probably missing

I have put a fix for this in portage.  Thanks for the report. :-)
