Get out the paddles, that one is my fault.  I've filed a bug for it-
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62985
and corrected it in cvs.  Basically it was a typo in the fetch function,
that by luck slipped by- instead of 

if fetched != 2:

Which tests a var that reflects the files status (fully fetched,
partially, or non-existant), it was

if fetch != 2:

Kind of entertaining... it was comparing the fetch function against an
int :)

I attached a patch to #62985 that should fix things up for you.  If it
doesn't, please post to the bug.  Note this only affects readonly
distdir's, so general userbase shouldn't hit it.
