Given the nature of this bug, it could have been a rare race condition if the worldfile was being written by some other process when the test ran, which could happen if you were running more than one instance of emerge at the time. 

I do need to look into it further, but more context is really needed to solve this certainly. ( Will put better failure detection regarding worldfile reading/reporting and see if somebody can repeat it ).

Though, if you can't repeat the problem, theres' no way to know which problem it was.
