9 to recover from this, simply do this:
10
11 - edit $EPREFIX/etc/make.globals
12 ensure PORTAGE_ROOT_USER is set to the correct value
13 - edit $EPREFIX/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage/const_autotool.py
14 check and fix the values of portagegroup, portageuser, rootuser,
15 rootuid and rootgid
16
17 after that your portage should be willing to operate again
