Not really.  It is nice to know that I am not alone though.
I updated the gentoo bug report with this information two days
ago  (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70161#c38).
 
 
 went a little further.  Repackaged the source tarball so that the 
top-level directory ended in 2.0.4.  Build went further but I got 
something I've never seen before:
ACCESS DENIED  mkdir:     /usr/portage/distfiles/install
 install: cannot create directory `/usr/portage/distfiles/install': 
Permission denied
make[1]: *** [install] Error 1
 
 
 went further this morning and posted this series of observations and 
questions on the gentoo user mailing list in search of answers:
"""
 trying to use the xen ebuild from bugzilla and I've encountered a series 
of problems which have overcome in less than ideal ways and I'd like to 
try and fix them the right way.
 The xen source tarball is delivered with a ./xen-2.0/ path and not with 
the version number is part of the path.  As a result $(S) is wrong and 
I'm wondering what's the right way to handle this?
 I worked around the problem by rebuilding the tarball with the version 
number in the path and encountered a situation where it was trying to 
make a directory in someplace it shouldn't. 
(/usr/portage/distfiles/install).  looking further into the makefile 
generating the error, it appears that $(DESTDIR) is the culprit.  My 
second question is it legitimate to change DESTFILE or should I create a 
patch or dynamically edit makefiles to change DESTFILE.  If I change it, 
what do I change it to?
"""
Scott, do you want me to update the bugzilla entry?
