Could you add the following to your etc/portage/bashrc:
echo EBUILD_PHASE=${EBUILD_PHASE} UNIXMODE=${UNIXMODE}
Remove your hack and set UNIXMODE in etc/make.conf
Then run portage, and check if the var is set. Also, during
compilation, it should be stored in the environment file in the "temp"
dir of your var/tmp/portage/cat/pkg/.

Those versions should be ok, I think...

It is also in the svn tree, so also there svn will retain your changes.
