This trunk snapshot fixes - Bug 261713 - Bug 270345 - security Bug 297655 (the security fix has been already committed upstream, so no patch for that included) - as well as authentication with pam_unix2 (upstream bug #15287) This way we could get actually somewhat more usable package in the tree. (Wrt Bug 261359, no solution, sorry). All new patches come from devnull overlay, security patch committed upstream came from Debian, gcc-4.4 patched dropped as already fixed upstream. Attached is the SVN trunk snapshot, patches and updated ebuild.
