[CUT]

the portage temp dir is remembered.
this makes some ebuilds like octave forge be wrong.
infact octave forge installs in 
/var/tmp/portage/octave-2.1.69/....

and this is a bug!

i'm not sure...but there should be another file like ls-R that keeps the portage temp path.
it's simple to check with sed and replace before merging.

same bug with 2.1.6*

please check

i remembered the other path
maybe in subdirs too!
