Several packages (many, but I don't remember which ones) give the error: !!! can't process invalid log file: .INFO. This doesn't cause emerge to exit, but it does appear after it is merged or merged to world.
The only thing that could cause this is if EBUILD_PHASE is unset/empty when elog_base is called, and that shouldn't be able to happen (also can't confirm it here). Please provide the following information: - output of: emerge --info - output of: emerge --info -v | grep ELOG - wether you use a portage bashrc (if you don't know what that means the answer is no)

I've noticed that there are some einfo and ewarn calls in misc-functions.sh that can account for this. In those cases, EBUILD_PHASE should be unset because it's not a normal ebuild phase.
