Something went seriously wrong here: lots of patches are missing from the overlay. Bootstrapping with LATEST_TREE_YES=1 fails when building sed due to a missing sed-4.1.4-makeinfo-c-locale.patch, and bash runs into the same problem. I already fixed missing patches in sys-libs/readline, but found out immediately afterwards that the problem is more widespread. I don't know how widespread exactly, but you probably want to have a look at what exactly went wrong in the import process. -- Ruud
