By the way, I see I'm late (just downloaded new mail), but I've already
written, and there is a piece of useful info below.

So your installed version seem to be: 2.0.0-r3, and that's the version
of 2015-08-09 (just list the dir: /usr/portage/*/layman/ and see).

Why not update to the current version 2.4.1-r1 ? (ah, maybe it's testing
only... so, don't know about that... but know I have that version
installed)

But this below I remember a little about:

You're ages behind with that. I don't recall, but maybe you should
search the news archives or somewhere, the change to:

/etc/portage/make.conf

is overdue in your case. It's been made the default some cca. two years
ago, IIRC.
