I realize this is not a production-ready tool, nevertheless... # glsa-check -f 200409-16 WARNING: This tool is completely new and not very tested, so it should not be used on production systems. It's mainly a test tool for the new GLSA release and distribution system, it's functionality will later be merged into emerge and equery.

My current version was 3.0.6-r4 'emerge ">samba-3.0.7"' emerged net-fs/samba-3.0.7-r1 with no difficulty, so I suspect the problem lies more with glsa-check than with the ebuild.
What portage version do you use ?
it's the usual Unicode problem that pops up from time to time, haven't found a pattern yet, anyway this will be fixed in the next gentoolkit release.
