If system-specific PORTDIR contains special characters, elibtoolize fails terribly trying to apply patches. I guess the fragment directly responsible for that is line 95: for x in $(ls -d "${patch_dir}"/* 2> /dev/null | grep -v 'CVS' | sort -r) ; do which indeed does fail when ${patch_dir} contains special characters. Thus, all ebuilds relying on elibtoolize (e.g. live xorg ones) fail too.

Created attachment 227239 [details] Example build log (libXext-9999)
Created attachment 227259 [details, diff] The proof-of-concept patch My patch is based on an assumption that the contents of ELT_PATCH_DIR are known not to use any special characters in filenames. Thus, instead of using full paths, we cd into ${ELT_PATCH_DIR} and use relative, safe paths. elibtoolize() probably doesn't require us to stay in the directory it sets (it seems to use absolute paths everywhere) and it returns to the original calling pwd anyway -- that's why the patch doesn't save pwd nor uses subshelling. We could even cd into "${ELT_PATCH_DIR}/${patch_set}" (old ${patch_dir}) but this way we lose ability to display the dirname in ELT_try_and_apply_patch().
while the wrapper func does take care of resetting the PWD, it doesnt make it a good code practice to extend. so if there is going to be any dir changing, it's going to be via pushd/popd. since there doesnt seem to be a clean way to build up the list of files w/out changing dirs w/out using a subshell, changing dirs looks like the way to go. however, i rewrote the function completely to clean it up (and fix other issues as well). thanks for the notice. http://sources.gentoo.org/eclass/libtool.eclass?r1=1.85&r2=1.86
Thank you, it seems to work correctly now.
