Since it's just a tmp dir, only allowing portage user to read seems too
strict.

Do you mean that I should add `userpriv' etc to FEATURES flag?  My
present setting is:

,----
| FEATURES="cvs parallel-fetch ccache keepwork"
`----

Yes, it's a big weird that debugging emacs requires me running the
executable. 

,----[ /usr/share/emacs/23.0.0/etc/DEBUG ]
