Hi,
I'm not an expert in ebuilds' issues, but /usr/portage/distfiles
(or whichever else one chooses for his/her own system) is availabe
through the variable DISTDIR (or is it DISTFILES? can't remember which
one exactly is and don't have gentoo available here). Hence, that
"/usr/portage/distfiles/${A}" can be modified to "${DISDIR}/${A}",
that is more readable and portable.
HTH,
