this is probably the same issue i pointed out originally. re-emerge bash and
it should work.

unfortunately, that info isnt useful in any way. it looks like it's a binpkg
though, so getting the files again should be possible. please have the user
find that file from the binpkg and report a bug.

It wasn't me who experienced that, but a user:
13:50 < diabel-> <<< dir /usr/share/doc/wxGTK-2.8.9.1-r3
13:50 < diabel-> /var/tmp/binpkgs/x11-libs/wxGTK-2.8.9.1-r3/temp/environment:

All it states is syntax error near double semicolons.

embedded case statements in $(...) subshells have always been broken.
bash-4.0 is supposed to fix that. if you have some code that is broken,
please post it so i can push it upstream.

FYI. Not only find's semicolons are affected. It also happens in case ;;
construction.

[gentoo-dev] bash-4.0 regression heads up (escaped semicolons in subshells)
looks like bash-4.0 has broken semicolon escaping in subshells. this comes up
when using find's -exec like we do in a few places in eclasses:
ls=$(find "$1" -name '*.po' -exec basename {} .po \;); shift
you can work around the issue in a couple of ways:
- quote the semicolon:
';')
- use backticks
`find \;`
i'll tweak the eclasses to use quoting for now
