upgrading from 2.1_pre7-r3 to -r5, then re-loading portage in the
running porthole session went smooth this morning.  I believe the last
time might have been upgrading to pre7-r3, maybe from -r2.  If I
remember correctly it usually reports failing to import one of the
modules.  Restarting porthole and trying a portage reload always works.

I don't think it is a portage fault, but maybe a python one involving
changes to the pym directory and path changes that a running python
session is not detecting and using the old now stale module paths.
