I emailed the devlist as well, but it's the mkdir /var/cache/mmcache, and then the two ownership/permissions lines which are causing problems as they're attempting to write outside of the sandbox (more concretely, the image, which has it's root at ${D}).

I've committed Mike's patch.  Please resync and give it a go.  Look for v1.4 of the 
ebuild file - that's the one with Mike's patch in it.

It works just fine now.  So this bug can be closed now.

Incidentally, where can I get a bulky php example that would allow me to test the differences in speed between cached and non-cached php?  At the moment, I can't really tell whether it has made any difference.

I think the best way to test the benefits of caching is to simulate load on the server.  
Take a look at turck-mmcache.sourceforge.net.  They posted some benchmarks; 
maybe they have a link (or at least information) about how they tested the 
performance.
