if ion3 is built with documentation it uses tex to build it. tex tries to write font cache which does not work with sandbox. tex requires user input when this error happens.

I'm looking into it. Hasn't happened to me, but that maybe due to my fonts-cache, as you mention.
just add: export VARTEXFONTS="${T}/fonts" before calling any tex related stuff.
the ebuild doesn't exist anymore, so nothing to fix.
