this is an ebuild from x86 portage... hmmz...

What probably happened is: 
I received an email from David Chamberlain (daybird@g.o) containing a 
fixed KDE build (inline - not attached). If fixed my own files with changes 
from his ebuild. I forwarded the email to danarmak, he included the changes 
in portage x86, probably by replacing the old ebuild with the ebuild from the 
email. Yesterday I updated ppc with all new ebuilds from x86. the KDE3 ebuild 
will have been replaced with a bad one.

I've cc'ed this email to Danarmak

Thnxs for reporting the problem/solution, I had a look at the ebuild earlier 
today using vim, but I didn't notice the <AO> chars...
