Please version bump dev-perl/PerlIO-via-symlink to version 0.05; 0.02 has got internal tests that will fail when emerging (I guess it's a Perl 5.8.x issue). The newer 0.05 seems to be working just fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: emerge =dev-perl/PerlIO-via-symlink-0.02 Actual Results: emerge output: >>> Source unpacked.
