I understand, and I appreciate the help. I was planning on doing exactly
what you suggest, I just wanted to see if you had encountered that same
problem when building 2007.0, in which case I would use the solution that
you already implemented. =)

Thanks again!

We aren't using that version of busybox, but rather an earlier one
without that restriction.  Currently, we have no real fix.  You could
hack up your stage2's /etc/conf.d/clock and set the TIMEZONE="UTC" prior
to starting stage3.  That should cause tzdata to create /etc/localtime
properly, I think.  Either that, or set the file yourself.

By the way, it usually helps to just read what the ebuild says and do
it.  That's all we do when release building.
