At least getting version 1.3.1 into portage would be nice. It is tagged at http://git.infradead.org/mtd-utils.git

The tool 'nandwrite' from the current mtd-utils snapshots does not work with SheevaPlug and IGEPv2 board because the snapshots are too old. So using live ebuild is the only option at the moment.

Regarding IGEPv2 board, it even needs a very recent commit from 12 June 2010: http://git.infradead.org/mtd-utils.git/commit/772f5e08faa9d2b5677aa6e01fce06860186a49f
