But this way (because the eclass suck) you'll get mandatory dep on findlib, so that's probably no good. So, its probably better to just copy the stuff from findlib_src_presinst before make install. Btw, if I hit that, dev-ml/findlib dep is probably missing
I have put a fix for this in portage. Thanks for the report. :-)
