The following patch shows the url to the binhost in an emerge -av as

doesn't store the binhost url, such that portage can't show where the
package comes from when unmerged.
Not sure if this is the right thing to do, or if the reponame in those
cases should be the one from the source repo that was used to generate
those binary packages. Not saying that the binhost name here is
useless, quite the opposite, just a bit concerned about mixing
different things here.
The idea behind it is that the repo_name of the binhost is not
necessarily useful. In many cases it will contain the default repo_name
value, since people just create binpkgs with a standard Portage install.
I agree it is a hack. Perhaps a combination of the repo_name and its
url would be the best.
