Obviously there is a size issue, and I cleaned out everything with
eclean to force fetches.
Delete the offending distfiles and let them be downloaded again. FYI,
eclean only clears out things that are no longer in the portage tree
by default. Even if you use the destructive option, it doesn't
doesn't remove currently needed ebuilds.
If you still get mismatched files, try a different download mirror.
Alternatively, if you are _really_ _really_ sure that the sources are
good, you can do an "ebuild
/usr/portage/cat-egory/pkg/pkg-version.ebuild digest" to force portage
to accept the current distfile that you have. This will be undone the
next time you sync, and again, you should be really really sure that
the sources are good, because this will bypass a critical security
feature of portage.
runs without error, but after looking /usr/X11R6 is still present, so rm
did not work for some reason.
It should still exist, but it should be a symbolic link to ../usr, not
a directory.

Thanks a great great deal Richard,
I deleted the distfiles manually and again it complained on the 'emerge
xorg-x11'.
So looking at your note, synced again, changed no mirrors, and just now
things have started building, currently on package 33 of something like 133.
Hopefully things will continue to go well with the rest of the builds.
Thanks again a great deal Richard,
Sean
