after looking at a few of the things it wants to update, every one so far 
has wanted to return to the default files that are included in a 
stage1(possibly stage2 or 3 toarballs). this is the first emerge unmerrge i 
have done on this install but this seems sooooo worng to me that emerge 
unmerge would want to return these to "factory defaults". I'm running 
portage version:

*  sys-apps/portage
      Latest version available: 2.0.36
      Latest version installed: 2.0.36

all those cfg files ... they existed _before_ your `emerge unmerge wine` right ?

many of those files have nothing to do with wine ...

is this the first time you've run `etc-update` ?
if not, did you run an `emerge -u world` or `emerge -u system` recently without 
running etc-update afterwards ?

Closing due to lack of followup. Reopen if you feel this is still a problem.
