With the (currently) latest portage, dispatch-conf crashes and burns: $ dispatch-conf Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/jacob/Library/Gentoo_x86/usr/sbin/dispatch-conf", line 36, in <module> mydir = portage.const.EPREFIX+"/var/tmp/dispatch-conf."

Same here.
FWIW, also broken in exactly the same way on IRIX ;)
Additionally, I get the following (on IRIX): Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/gentoo/usr/sbin/quickpkg", line 10, in <module> if os.environ.__contains__("PORTAGE_PYTHONPATH"): NameError: name 'os' is not defined
happens on all interix versions too. i'll try to investigate, but i'm not so much of a python guru, so i promise nothing ;)
> from portage import os this feels wrong. chaging this to import os import portage fixes dispatch-conf however this seems to happen a lot of times: mduft prefix-portage-2.2.00.14153 $ find . -type f | xargs grep 'from portage import os' | wc -l 99
ah, i c. portage provides it's own os wrapper for unicode, so that one is ok. simply adding 'import portage' fixes the problem too..
ok, i solved the problem. seems that (in prefix only) there are a few import problems :) an import was missing, and another two where too late. i created a patch and revbumped portage - update should arive shortly. @grobian: could you pick up the patch, and apply to the prefix branch?
I fixed the issue differently in SVN
