Do you keep a binary copy in /usr/portage/packages/All/ by any chance? 
This is done by setting the FEATURES= in make.conf. 

If not, I think they keep a binary package on Gentoo somewhere.  There
may be other places as well. 

If all else fails and you happen to have a system that is compatible
with mine, I could send you mine.  :-)
