please ensure the package does NOT conflict with the existing iostat from app-admin/sysstat, and you must use the skel.ebuild template for the copyright header. manpages should be installed straight into /usr/share/man, don't abuse the /usr/man symlink.

i'd recommend rewriting the ebuild to not use the patch, and just do the install manually (it would be 2 lines in src_install).
newbin iostat iostat-custom
newman iostat.8 iostat-custom.8

ooops, I did not realize sysstat had iostat in it.
