Your package is runtime-depending on sys-devel/bin86 standing to http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/misc/rindex/sys-devel/bin86 . sys-devel/bin86 is a tool used almost always at build-time, (it's either a build system or a generator - sorry this is a generic template I start with so I can't tell you right away which one). This means that it should only be depended at build-time.

Please correct your ebuild or document why it is used as a runtime-dependency so that it will not be suspected again.

Thanks,
Diego
