patch for pax-utils-1.2.2 ebuild script

Emerging app-misc/pax-utils-1.2.2 with alternate prefix (--prefix / $EPREFIX) results in an error:

* QA Notice: the following files are outside of the prefix:
... content of package follows...

Attached is patch for the 1.2.2 ebuild of pax-utils that seems to do the job.

Interesting, I'm running without this on may Prefix systems, doesn't it run configure or something for you?

Based on Fabian's comment I'm going to mark this as NEEDINFO. Please reopen this with more info.
