If you're feeling brave, you can edit /usr/lib/portage/bin/dosbin and change "gid=root" to "gid=wheel". Alternatly, you can go into your working files directory and "chmod a+x installkernel". A second file will need to be chmoded (I can't remember which one). This will allow the package to be installed if you're too impatient to wait on bug #67599.
ok, well, i just wanted to report it :) thx for the answer
Oh, well, I understand what you mean. With 20040726 installer it contains _pre something portage, which lacks dosbin patch for Mac OS X (but debianutils is required by portage-2.0.51 if USE="-build"). We are just waiting for a new installer.
Closing out bugs that've been resolved for a while now...
