I made a complete guess and it appeared to work. The popt build was failing for the same reason that bug 199667 was failing for. So, I added elibtoolize to the src_unpack() function of the ebuild. Like I said, this was a complete guess but it worked, I don't even really know what elibtoolize does. Attached is a diff of the changes I made, please review and comment.

haubi just checked in some fix for ia64-hpux, can you check/look/see what it is and if it works for you?
