[Gambas-user] 1.0-rc2 ebuild is broken

The ebuild for gambas 1.0-rc2 seems to be broken (the Gentoo build).  
The make file appears to attempt to access files directly on the 
filesystem?  Specifically, it seems to attempt to unlink /usr/bin/gambas 
(ebuilds cannot access files outside of the sandbox into which they are 
compiling).

Here's the log of relevant output from the build:

------------------8<------------------

The 0.99 ebuild, however, doesn't have this problem.

I'm not sure who maintains this ebuild?
