portage-2.1.3.14 breaks etc-update on a fresh system:

main ~ # etc-update
diff: %file1: No such file or directory
diff: %/var/tmp/etc-update-3913/.diff-test-2: No such file or directory
ERROR: 'diff -uN %file1 %file2' does not seem to work, aborting


probably related to bug 195920.

What do you mean by "fresh system"? Here is the relevant code:

diff_command() {
	local cmd=${diff_command//%file1/$1}
	${cmd//%file2/$2}
}

What version of bash do you have?

I've bumped the bash dependency to 3.2_p17 since it already has stable keywords.
