I have the same problem: t.tar test fails on amd64. I just tried the recently released fakeroot-1.7 and it fixes the test case by adding more wrapped syscalls that are required for correct working of tar. So for at least amd64 a newer ebuild is required for correct functionality. Maybe the older released should be moved to ~amd64 or just have no amd64 at all in the KEYWORDS.
thanks for the tip ... 1.7 now in portage
