Do you have an /etc/portage directory?  If so, are there any entries in
package.* there that do not have valid object comparison operators at
the start?  (ie >=kde-base/kdelibs-3.2.0 NEEDS the >=)

Also, check your /var/cache/edb/world file for any packages that specify
the version number, but fit the same pattern.

Just as a note, 2.0.50 works perfectly here - hardly seems fair to call
it crap before giving someone the chance to point out what may by wrong
on your system...
