well, it's later...

1: ebuild did not properly specify the location of xen-2.0.4-src.tgz.  I 
use a caching proxy for grabbing all packages and it could not be found.

So I put the -src file in  /usr/portage/distfiles/, built a digest and 
got the following:

xeno xen # ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge xen
Calculating dependencies ...done!
 >>> emerge (1 of 1) sys-apps/xen-2.0.4 to /

 >>> Unpacking xen-2.0.4-src.tgz to /var/tmp/portage/xen-2.0.4/work
/usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh: line 32: cd: 
/var/tmp/portage/xen-2.0.4/work/xen-2.0.4: No such file or directory

sed: can't read xen/arch/x86/Rules.mk: No such file or directory

which is probably because the path expands to:

  /var/tmp/portage/xen-2.0.4/work/xen-2.0/

I tweaked ths ebuild to use the correct path instead of $S and it fails 
in the build process which implies more path problems.

ideas?
