Running ./bootstrap-prefix.sh "/tmp/jolexa/test" stage3 somewhere failed :( I have no clue, really. Please find friendly folks in #gentoo-prefix on freenet, gentoo-alt@lists.gentoo.org mailing list, or file a bug at bugs.gentoo.org under Gentoo/Alt, Prefix Support. This is most inconvenient, and it crushed my ego. Sorry, I give up.
we can't, because then portage goes boom about shebangs m4 should have been bootstrapped by stage1 in your case. what does mv --version return for you? (we likely need to pin it down to a minimum version)
pls verify with ./bootstrap-prefix ${EPREFIX}/tmp m4 && ./bootstrap-prefix ${EPREFIX} stage3

set PATH, CHOST, EPREFIX, MAKEOPTS (PATH should be enough if you didn't change bitness)

why bison?
(In reply to comment #7) > why bison? because the bootstrapped bison ($EPREFIX/tmp/usr/bin/yacc) still used the host's m4 (/usr/bin/m4) until bison was rebuilt
ok, I introduced a version requirement
