check your keywords, how did you unmask zfs?

Here are mine:

$ grep -r zfs /etc/portage
/etc/portage/sets/zfs:sys-fs/zfs
/etc/portage/sets/zfs:sys-fs/zfs-kmod
/etc/portage/package.keywords/zfs:=sys-fs/zfs-kmod-0.7.1 ~amd64
/etc/portage/package.keywords/zfs:=sys-fs/zfs-0.7.1 ~amd64
$ grep -r spl /etc/portage
/etc/portage/sets/zfs:sys-kernel/spl
/etc/portage/package.keywords/zfs:=sys-kernel/spl-0.7.1 ~amd64
