I had thought of doing the grep on /usr/portage, but you had a good
point in checking the overlay.  I discovered I had a glibc package
hidden in there, and after I nuked it the problem went away.  I'm not
quite sure why - it wasn't the version I was actually running.

In any case, I don't have nearly as much need for the overlay these days
- - I used to need it to unmask individual packages before the invention
of /etc/portage.

Thanks for the ideas!
