3.

Actual Results:  
/etc/ietd.conf is replaced with the default config file.

An temporary config that would be updated with etc-update.

i cant reproduce this nor is there anything in the ebuild which touches $ROOT, nor any code that runs in a pkg_* step

see if 0.4.16_p162 causes you problems as that is going stable
