It seems like something does
env >$temp/environment; . $temp/environment.

Really, this is a bug in their code. Unfortunately, there's no way to unset an envorinment variable in rc (Yes, it's lame. Complane to Tom, if you'd like, but it won't help). I could always switch to the Unix rc port, and earn the neverending ire of some Plan 9 folks, though.

/usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh: line 1658: /bin/sort: Argument list too long
/usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild.sh: line 1658: /bin/tr: Argument list too long
/usr/lib/portage/bin/misc-functions.sh: line 433: /usr/bin/find:

These are because rc stores functions in its environment. I'll add code to wi_runcmd to unset them; you're not the first to have this trouble.

Something like:

fn `{env | sed -n 's/^fn#([^=]+).*/\1/p'}

Or, you could use zsh, which automagically strips environment variables that it doesn't like.
