None of them are actually emerged. After a --clean rsync the 1.1.1 went away and I could not reproduce the problem. May or may not be worth trying to track down the real problem. I do have one other box that I can reproduce the problem on in case you need more information. Let me know.
This has been fixed and Portage 2.0.11 will work for you.
