::muttermumblecurse::  Did the ebuild fail in the same way as the direct
build, or was it a different failure?  I'd like to figure out what's going on
and get the thing working reliably if it's within my ability to do so, although
working with this stuff often makes me feel like I'm banging my head
against a wall.

We need some sort of organized effort to package Trinity for Gentoo--it
seems like 4-5 people have intermittently tried to do bits and pieces, with 
no real coordination beyond copying Serghei's initial ebuilds, and likely 
some duplication of effort.
