Please check whether the use of 'einstall' in this ebuild is actually
needed. From a quick glance at the Makefile, it seems to have proper
support for DESTDIR.

Therefore, if possible please replace the call to 'einstall' with proper
'default' or 'emake DESTDIR="${D}" install'. Thanks.

Yup, that einstall() is extraneous and installs the same things as `emake DESTDIR="${D}" install`.

+  30 Aug 2014; Nathan Phillip Brink <binki@gentoo.org> bitchx-1.2.ebuild:
+  Drop einstall() from bitchx-1.2 for bug #521438.
