this seems to indicate that it failed to open a file in your
cache.  where is your cache located and what type of fs is
your cache filesystem?

thank you.

>cacheinfo:
>/afs:/tmp/afscache:300000

hmm... this could be trouble.  does gentoo have some sort of daemon
that might cleanup /tmp?  or worse, is /tmp some sort of 
memory filesystem?  trying putting cache in /var (assuming
var is ext3 or ext2).
