I seem to have gotten past the unlink issue. I modified the first line
of emerge from:

#!/usr/bin/python -O

to:

#!/usr/local/bin/python -O

This seems to be solution even though I had symlinks
from /usr/bin/python -> /usr/local/bin/python. The emerge -uD is working
nicely now. It is on packet 5 of 8. Where, before, it would fail on the
first package.
