[gentoo-user] stable/testing system requiring an *UNstable* dev-lang/perl
For some reason my mostly-stable-slightly-testing system
is trying to merge *UNstable* dev-lang/perl.
I do not have a package.unmask file
Specifically it wants me to unmask
=dev-lang/perl-5.20.0-r1
An eix on the same system (with no sync in between) does not even show
such a version as existing. I realize I must be misreading some
output, but I can't find my error.
Help would be greatly appreciated.

I rather suspect you are falling foul of portage's recent weird and
wonderful behaviour trying to satisfy deps[1]. Faling that, you might
just have gotten a bad sync while someone was adding perl-5.20 to the tree
Plus your eix does not match emerge, meaning you have recently sync'ed
and not run eix-update after.
Sync again and re-run emerge -avuND world, see if the latest tree has
your issue fixed.
If not, run it with --backtrack=0 and again with --backtrack=100, let's
see if helping portage out makes a difference.
Finally, my favourite trick to find settings I forgot about:
egrep -ir perl|cpan /etc/portage
[1] yes, it is getting better as we move forward. But the console output
is still odd at times, it's still slow as molasses, and it really looks
like sometimes it's way to smart for it's own good.
