Clearly, it's src_install() is utterly broken. It's using the temp dir as it's 
work dir and finally removing the temp dir completely. That's illegal! 
There's a bug open but it lacks a maintainer. Fixing it may be as simple as 
substituting ${T} with ${WORKDIR} in all occurrences in src_install. If that 
does it you should comment on the bug and say so..
