As mentioned just a second ago in the forums at <http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-477684.html>, my mirror in Sweden picked up the missing patch this morning. Source unpacking now, so all seems fine. Since Joshua may want this bug open while still looking into the issues behind it, I won't close it, but will let him/you do that at your convenience. Thank you! /Mike
On the mirrors now.
