While the docs say gives the example:

sys-devel/binutils-2.11.90.0.7 matches
       binutils-2.11.90.0.7


In practice, the only allowed syntax to unmerge libpng-1.0.12 is
emerge unmerge =libpng-1.0.12

So either the syntax parser should be fixed, or the docs should be corrected.

Also, the abspath crash is ugly, but not in any way critical.

OK, both these bugs are now fixed and will appear in 1.9.11
