This is obviousely incorrect. Remerging the library does not solve the issue. However in the image directory created by "ebuild openmotif-2.2.3-r9 install" the permissions are all right. Unmeging and remergeing solves the issue.

I assume portage doesn't change permissions of existing dirs. I don't know where this issue came from in the first place, but I assume some previous ebuild did something wrong. If so, it would be nice for newer ebuilds to fix the issue.
