I do wonder about these files hat my tinderbox :

tinderbox@tor-relay ~ $ ls  amd64-*/tmp/mklibsrc-log.tx
amd64-desktop-unstable_20150918-212348/tmp/mklibsrc-log.tx

that's actually a security issue ;).  sent report upstream and updated our ebuild to not do this:
http://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=d2e0d720fd9440e55f2dab5eddecf4dd1f74364b

it was incidentally fixed in upstream commit f303a1d5d8d8e002974eb64818f74041325f2433, but that hasn't seen a release yet.

Years old dinkleberry debug detritus.  I'll bump out something in a couple weeks.  Meanwhile, just remove the code that creates the file.
Sorry about that:
