I'd prefer this way:

----
#!/bin/sh
# Copyright 2006 Gentoo Foundation
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2
# $Header: $

if [ -f /etc/portage/bashrc ]; then
	source /etc/portage/bashrc
	[ "$(type -t post_sync)" == "function" ] && post_sync
fi
----

i.e. use bashrc for this. We handle the existing hooks through bashrc, 
and postsync hooks aren't anything different, so they should be handled 
through the same logic. I think it's just more intuitive than a 
postsync.d/ subdirectory.
