I think you should file a bug and see what the devs say. As far as I
see, default/linux/x86/vserver and default-linux/x86/vserver as well
as targets/vserver/ have not been touched for about 9 months now.

Something is amiss with regards to vserver.

Yeah I don't see any changes in the profliles now that you mention it so
it must be this entry from /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask that
started the problem.


# mask pending removal
# Benedikt Böhm <hollow@gentoo.org> (10 Jan 2009)
# baselayout-vserver is unmaintained and obsoleted by
# baselayout-2/openrc. please upgrade. removal in 30 days.
sys-apps/baselayout-vserver

If I comment that out, I can at least keep working on the system until I
figure out which way to proceed.
