I tryed to compile the package with LDFLAGS="" but that didn't help either.

No such file (and directory): 5.1.4/50erc-gentoo.el

in /usr/portage/app-emacs/erc/files

Try :
cp -a 5.1.1  5.1.4

and emerge again.

I changed the whole handling of SITEFILES and also adjusted the ebuilds a bit.  It is fixed in CVS now, resync in a about an hour and test it.  Thanks for the notice.
