The stable iputils ebuild fails to compile: [...] make -C doc man make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/portage/iputils-020124-r1/work/iputils/doc' nsgmls:../index.db:1:59:W: cannot generate system identifier for public text "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V3.1//EN" nsgmls:../index.db:12:0:E: reference to entity "REFERENCE" for which no system identifier could be generated nsgmls:../index.db:1:0: entity was defined here [...] For the full output see "http://sascha.silbe.org/gentoo/iputils-stable.log". The unstable (i.e. KEYWORDS=~x86) iputils ebuild works fine, though: [...] make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/portage/iputils-020927/work/iputils/doc' make -C doc man make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/portage/iputils-020927/work/iputils/doc' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `man'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/portage/iputils-020927/work/iputils/doc' [..] For the full output see "http://sascha.silbe.org/gentoo/iputils-unstable.log". So I suggest you just mark iputils-020927 as stable.

I'm unmasking the stable one for x86 (020927), which will close this bug.
