Your net-p2p/ldcpp-cvs-0.0.1 directory should in fact be net-p2p/ldcpp-cvs or even just net-p2p/ldcpp when using 2.1.
I can reprduce this traceback with 2.1 but I'm not sure if it's worth fixing. I suppose we can catch the KeyError from xmatch and then do some validation on package to check for this particular case.

Validating every directory found when walking in cp_all() would be the correct fix but would bring a large performance loss. I reckon this one could be called a WONTFIX.
In order to minimize the performance hit, I suppose we could do validation inside portdbapi.cp_all for overlays only. For large overlays it would still hurt performance though.
