Assuming this is not the time it takes to run rsync (even on a dial-up 
analogue modem connection?) I would guess the delay is caused by the post-sync 
tree verification.  The .tmp-unverified-download-quarantine file is where the 
sync is stored until the signature verification is performed.  Even on a 
really old dual-core laptop with low RAM the sync and verification only takes 
around 20 minutes.

Yes, the new location for the portage ebuilds is:

$ ls -la /var/db/repos/gentoo/.*

You may need to remove the whole tree as Neil did, if the verification fails 
because of the portage tree contents.  Theoretically a re-sync ought to fix 
this, because the .tmp-unverified-download-quarantine file would/should be 
initially overwritten and eventually deleted once the verification is 
complete, but as you reported it didn't do so.  :-/

This bug points to the tree owned by root:root instead of portage:portage, 
interestingly in my most recent installation the tree is owned by root as you 
can see above and I'm not getting this problem.
