Emerging app-arch/p7zip fails. Platform is Prefix Portage on SUSE 10 Enterprise. A previous version of p7zip emerges successfully if version 4.65 is masked in etc/portage/package.mask.

I can confirm the problem in Gentoo Prefix on Mac OS X. With USE=-rar, the ebuild fails because the 4.65-makefile.patch is missing from the files dir. The ebuild author probably just forgot to commit it.
sync problem, sorry.
patch added, thanks
