Eric,

I had the exact same problem when I tried the ebuild.  Turns
out I had downloaded it with wget (I.E. wget http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=50718). Although
the ebuild looked perfect, it wined about mount-boot and
had the weird error were words were ran together (inherit()sr/portage/eclass/mount-boot).
To fix it, I went to the site of the above ebuild and copied and
pasted it into a vim session (using :a in vim).
!Do'H!  wget returns dos format text.  there are multiple ways of 
converting to the one true format (unix).  I'm now building and ever 
hopeful.  this "feature" always bites me when I least expect it.
It then worked as an ebuild should. Unfortunately, It then gave me the errors that I logged on bugzilla.
maybe a problem with cut and paste.  try wget and convert to unix text 
(emacs, nano, tr, ???)
I don't know what the root cause of the wget'ed ebuild problem was. Invisible characters?
na, it was 2 (dos) characters... ;-)

more updates later

The basis of Abelard's philosophy, which he taught to Heloise, was
that logic had to be applied to religion in order to arrive at the
truth.
