physfs-2.0.3 has been released last month. Changes taken from the announcement at http://icculus.org/pipermail/physfs/2012-October/001056.html - Source code now packaged in a .tar.bz2 instead of .tar.gz. - Fixed "make docs" for out-of-tree builds. - No longer builds annoying wxWidgets test program by default. - Fixed logic bug in UTF-8 string processing. - Fixed infinite loop on some .zip files with symlinks. - Enabled CD-ROM support on Haiku OS. - Fixed Win64 support. - Fixed OpenBSD support. - Fixed building of readline support in test program. - Fixed .zip archiver losing files in some cases. - Corrected copyright dates in license. - Other minor tweaks and fixes. Obviously, the ebuild needs at least an adjustment of SRC_URI. After replacing tar.gz with tar.bz2, emerge worked fine here. (However, I did not do any further testing.)
