I'm not sure exactly what is happening to load emacs in such a way
that its output (when loading personal init files) causes emerge to
error out.
I do have most of the error and context to post. What I do know
is that emacs is routinely called to byte compile stuff. Normally
that call would include `-q --no-site-file ' on the emacs command
line.
That is routine, so I'm thinking the call is made without those
precautions.
-q prevents ~/.emacs but also /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/default.el
from loading if it exists.
--no-stite-file prevents loading of site-start.el if it exists.
Those files are reserved for system admins to set global code into
emacs started by any user. And of coures ~/.emacs is where users put
there own code.
Any of those three files is likely to have all kinds of screwy code
loading that has no place in a compile situation. I even think it
breaks the emerge session. I'm guessing some of my code causes output
from emacs not expected by emerge or maybe coming out on standard err
caused the problem.
Of coures I've recognize the source code I wrote being invoked so I
just have to rename a couple of files or even just site-start.el
during the emerge.
That should not be necessary though. Somewhere in the build session
emacs is called wrong and should be fixed.
I don't know enough about tracing this out to pull out the hard facts
so before posting a bug on this, I'd like to hear some commentary.

******************
Below is the ouput of code from my site-start.el file. It should not
be getting loaded. It appears, up above a ways, that emacs has been
called with no flags, which would allow it to load stuff it should
not. All that guff in /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.d
probably shouldm't be loaded either.

(Tip from Kai G): Now loading: nil
