Created attachment 37273 [details]
memtester-4.0.3.ebuild.patch

applying this patch to the abuild made it work fine for me...

in general it makes two things:
a) not executing ht_fix_file (cause the file was just fine and this broke it
resulting in head -n -n 1)
b) make sure to run make in src_compile section
