If it's a bug in the acct-user eclass, it's a rare one. It would help if 
you could pin down the root cause. It's not something easy like "it 
fails if the user already exists." Every user and group ebuild is 
already at "-r1", which means they've been reinstalled at least once on 
most peoples' machines.
