No, I ran find between `compile' and `install', and that must be the
problem.  ./source/Makefile disappears when I run `ebuild install'. Checking now:

I've stepped thru these:

  digest
  unpack
  compile

And now there is a Makefile in source
find . -iname '*makefile*'
./pcp/Makefile
./source/tdb/Makefile
./source/Makefile
./source/iniparser/test/Makefile
./source/iniparser/Makefile
./source/Makefile.in
./examples/VFS/Makefile.in

[...]

But once I've run `ebuild install' (and it fails as posted) it
disappears: 
find . -iname '*makefile*'
./pcp/Makefile
./source/tdb/Makefile
./source/iniparser/test/Makefile
./source/iniparser/Makefile
./source/Makefile.in
./examples/VFS/Makefile.in
./examples/pdb/Makefile

[...]

I used the samba-3.0.23a.ebuild now on portage as base.  The only
changes I've made were to illimintate torture

These two lines at line 127

  #     einfo "make rpctorture"
  #     emake rpctorture || ewarn "rpctorture didn't build"

And the change you suggested at line 148 

<       make DESTDIR=${D} install-everything || die
---
>       make DESTDIR=${D} install || die

I've since restored intall-everything

 I've diffed my ebuild against the one now on 
  portage samba-3.0.23a.ebuild for your convenience and inlined the
  resulting patch derived with diff -u (unified style output)

But first, the reason for commenting out those two line about torture
was because the compile phase broke on compiling torture and I
couldn't determine why.  I was told torture was an antiquated and
little used tool so decided to just try to leave it out.

Also the full edited ebuild is here:
  http://www.jtan.com/~reader/samba-3.0.23c.ebuild
but a diff is posted below.

diff -u samba-3.0.23a.ebuild samba-3.0.23c.ebuild
