An update.
I unpacked a stage 3 tar and copied python and portage into my system.  I was 
able to do a sync but when I do a emerge -u world I get the following error.

bash-2.05b# emerge -uv python
Calculating dependencies ...done!

The permissions on the passwd and group files seem to be the same as before I 
damaged my system.

Has anybody any ideas how to solve this???

thanks  Paul
