Now python-updater wants to rebuild mythtv, and fails to do so because of 
the missing version.pro. Same version which built before. The ebuild's date 
is from july 20th, some days before I emerged it, so there was no silent 
change.

Strange. But for the moment I don't care, no time yet to play with mythtv.

BTW, the expected .../work/mythtv-0.21_p20877/version.pro can be found in 
.../work/branches/release-0-21-fixes/mythtv/version.pro.

I've been dealing with this failure for a couple of weeks now. Nothing
new released to address it yet even though it seems there might be
some sort of a fix pending, or even possibly released (as per the last
couple of entries) but for me p20877 still doesn't build:

I had the same problem. What I've done is to remove ~x86 from mythtv in
/etc/portage/package.keywords and then rerun the python updater on the
older stable mythtv version (0.21_p18314-r1). The compile completed
successfully.
