On entering a new but, the user is prompted: "Please paste all information from 'emerge info' in this section!" emerge info says: *** Deprecated use of action 'info', use '--info' instead so, the website should be adjusted to --info, too.
There should be also instructions to attach the info if it's too large, instead of splitting it into multiple comments... see http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=189202#c12

This issue might actually be worsened if users make use of EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS. When I was filing a bug report recently, I did an # emerge --info as instructed, but my EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS include the "--verbose" switch which made that output quite longer without me recognizing that fact. So, it there is a way to undo the effect of a "--verbose" preset to "emerge" via the command line, it should be included in the prompt. I have also created a discussion thread at http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-576528.html about this question.
fixed. Please open a seperate bug for the --verbose defaultopts problem.
