Portage should remove blank dirs or am i wrong?

Yes, but only in the unmerge phase it seems, so you it installs them, 
then checks whether they are empty and removes them again, which is both 
stupid and confusing.

        cp -a "${S}"/* "${D}"/ || die "copying files failed!"

For future *BSD compatibility (yes i want to use the linux bsd emulation
for flash, opera, etc) it's better to use rsync -a imho

I'll use cp -pPr.
