Thanks Alan, it's not just these two ebuilds digests that come up with errors.  
I attach the complete error.  I compared the corresponding Manifests between 
the two PCs and there no differences.  For example:

Good PC:
=======
# sha1sum /var/lib/layman/enlightenment/x11-plugins/e_modules-
forecasts/Manifest
d058dc5e9f6443a9f4e3a02f32c8dde9c2ae1844  /var/lib/layman/enlightenment/x11-
plugins/e_modules-forecasts/Manifest


Bad PC:
======
$ sha1sum /var/lib/layman/enlightenment/x11-plugins/e_modules-
forecasts/Manifest
d058dc5e9f6443a9f4e3a02f32c8dde9c2ae1844  /var/lib/layman/enlightenment/x11-
plugins/e_modules-forecasts/Manifest


Similarly, there's no difference between the checksums of the ebuilds in the 
two PCs.


Here is the content of the e_modules-forecasts Manifest:

On the good PC I am able to emerge tclock:
=========================================
# emerge -1aDv x11-plugins/e_modules-tclock

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild  N    *] x11-plugins/e_modules-tclock-9999::enlightenment  USE="nls -
doc" 0 kB

Total: 1 package (1 new), Size of downloads: 0 kB

The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed:
 (see "package.accept_keywords" in the portage(5) man page for more details)
# required by x11-plugins/e_modules-tclock (argument)
=x11-plugins/e_modules-tclock-9999 **

NOTE: The --autounmask-keep-masks option will prevent emerge
      from creating package.unmask or ** keyword changes.

Use --autounmask-write to write changes to config files (honoring
CONFIG_PROTECT). Carefully examine the list of proposed changes,
paying special attention to mask or keyword changes that may expose
experimental or unstable packages.

On the bad PC it complaints of corrupt files:

I am completely confused with this.  :-/
