To me it looks like you should be updating sys-apps/portage or wondering why it wants to regenerate the manifest. Meanwhile, please paste your `emerge --info' in a comment and attach the entire build log.

[Yes/No] !!! getFetchMap(): 'media-video/vlc-9999' has unsupported EAPI: '4' !!! Unable to generate manifest for 'media-video/vlc-1.1.7'. It doesn't "build" anything yet. I changed the EAPI=4 line to EAPI=3 in the vlc-9999.ebuild and it worked. Not sure it was the right thing to do though...
You seem to have a broken Manifest for vlc. As you're using the stable tree and we don't have any stable portage version that supports EAPI-4, you get the "unable to generate" manifest error. As the manifest on my system seems to be ok, please try to sync again and see if that fixes your issue.
What about stabilizing portage 2.1.41, bug 349307 has no open blockers
I resynced my tree and got the same problem. Also had the case with mplayer-9999.ebuild. Seems that EAPI 4 is creeping in the portage tree...
please update portage to ~arch, there's nothing that can be done on vlc's side... or file a portage bug
I suppose we could add something like FEATURES=incomplete-manifests, but it seems like that could end up being an unnecessary maintenance given that it's easy enough to update to ~arch portage. If your in a real pinch then you can remove the Manifest and use temporarily use FEATURES=-strict (thought it's not wise to use this approach unless absolutely necessary).
