Check bugzilla. If there is something wrong with the tree, it's likely already 
reported and fixed. You probably synced while an update to that part of the 
tree was going on - happens to me about once a year (i.e. not very often)

The error itself is harmless, it's just a ChangeLog file. So by rights therest 
of portage and the tree should continue to work just fine.
