In portage 2.1 when using buildpkg the files are created in /usr/portage/packages/All/syslog-ng-2.0.9.tbz and symlinked point here is created as /usr/portage/packages/app-admin/syslog-ng-2.0.9.tbz In portage 2.2 it only makes /usr/portage/packages/app-admin/syslog-ng-2.0.9.tbz The documentation (that is man page) does not reflect this change in Portage operation. The man page in question is man 1 ebuild. I don't know how to make patches for man pages otherwise I'd attach one.
Both layouts are still supported. If the $PKGDIR/All/ directory exists then the
old layout is used, except in cases when collisions need to be resolved in
order to avoid bug #133908.
