Check bugzilla. If there is something wrong with the tree, it's likely already reported and fixed. You probably synced while an update to that part of the tree was going on - happens to me about once a year (i.e. not very often) The error itself is harmless, it's just a ChangeLog file. So by rights therest of portage and the tree should continue to work just fine. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
