I've tracked this down to the --skip-build in distutils-r1.eclass.

Isn't this bug rather related to this bug in exo:

I don't know for sure, but when I changed the eclass to remove that flag I was able to merge successfully. It could be a coincidence of course.

It merges with -j1. That's why I guess it is a parallel make race condition, like it is for exo. Your findings with the eclass are also interesting...
