Who is consuming the env dict?  I thought it was for scripts running
in the chroot, in which case it can't possibly care about the mount
source, but might conceivably care about the mount target.  In any
case, current usage in your pending branch is inconsistent:

  $ git grep 'self\.env\[.*\] *=' origin/pending --
  origin/pending:modules/generic_stage_target.py:    self.env["CCACHE_DIR"] = self.target_mounts["ccache"]
  origin/pending:modules/generic_stage_target.py:    self.env["PATH"]="/usr/lib/icecc/bin:"+self.env["PATH"]
  origin/pending:modules/generic_stage_target.py:    self.env["PORT_LOGDIR"]=self.settings["port_logdir"]
  origin/pending:modules/generic_stage_target.py:    self.env["PORT_LOGDIR_CLEAN"]='find "${PORT_LOGDIR}" -type f ! -name "summary.log*" -mtime +30 -delete'
  origin/pending:modules/generic_stage_target.py:    self.env[varname]=self.settings[x]
  origin/pending:modules/generic_stage_target.py:    self.env[varname]=string.join(self.settings[x])
  origin/pending:modules/generic_stage_target.py:    self.env[varname]="true"
  origin/pending:modules/generic_stage_target.py:    self.env[varname]="false"
  origin/pending:modules/generic_stage_target.py:    self.env["MAKEOPTS"]=self.settings["makeopts"]
  origin/pending:modules/generic_stage_target.py:    self.env[kname+"_kernelopts"]=myopts
  origin/pending:modules/generic_stage_target.py:    self.env[kname+"_kernelopts"]=""
  origin/pending:modules/generic_stage_target.py:    self.env["clst_kextraversion"]=\
  origin/pending:modules/generic_target.py:    self.env["PATH"]="/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin"

CCACHE_DIR is set using target_mounts (which makes sense to me), but
PORT_LOGDIR is set using settings (which does not make sense to me).
For example, if I decide to configure port_logdir (via my Catalyst
settings) to /some/wonky/path/on/the/host/system, I want Catalyst to
bind-mount that to /var/tmp/portage
(TARGET_MOUNTS_DEFAULTS['port_logdir']) and then have emerges in the
chroot use /var/tmp/portage.  If emerges in the chroot try to use
/some/wonky/path/on/the/host/system thinks are not going to work.
