3.3.3.4 was released on 07.10.2007. Not sure exactly what I ought to be submitting other than a new version is out and works fine (I don't use the ebuild though, just downloading it directly). If an ebuild is needed, I'll try my hand at it. Reproducible: Always
I committed this to the portage tree just a few minutes before seeing this bug :-P Anyway, it is fixed now, thanks for the report.
