Ok, here you can find a tarball with my /usr/local/portage/ tree.

No problem, it's on my todo-list, right after "Checking gentoo docs for
ebuild correctness". I am a gentoo-novice too, and it's possible that I made
mistakes on writing them (for example I have explicitely used the switch
--with-apache-20 in the shibboleth-sp ebuild, which I suppose is not the
right way to specify that).

BTW if you want to check the ebuilds correctness, afterwards we can open
a bug on bugs.gentoo.org to have them integrated in the main tree.

Thanks so much.

I just now downloaded cxxtest after finding the line in opensaml configure:
22087 # Check for unit test support
22088 CXXTEST="/usr/bin/cxxtestgen.pl"

rather than hack configure to where I'd exracted cxxtest I copied cxxtestgen.pl to /usr/bin/
and ran ./configure again and ...
opensaml-1.1 # ./configure --prefix=/opt/shibboleth-sp --with-curl=/opt/shibboleth-sp --with-log4cpp=/opt/shibboleth-sp --with-openssl=/usr/lib -C > /root/opensamlConfigure.2.log
opensaml-1.1 # 

no errors <grin> but  I have a bunch more work to do:
opensaml-1.1 # make > /root/opensamlMake.log
SAMLAudienceRestrictionCondition.cpp:203:7: warning: no newline at end of file
SAMLException.cpp: In member function `virtual xercesc_2_7::DOMNode* saml::SAMLException::toDOM(xercesc_2_7::DOMDocument*, bool) const':

SAMLException.cpp:553: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions

unittest.cpp:10:34: cxxtest/TestListener.h: No such file or directory

looks like I need to copy across a few more files for cxx test to work and back up to xerces 
2.6.1 (iirc) as was suggested as the best path for shiboleth<embarassed>.

I'll also try your  ebuilds when time permits  mabe that's now  ...

thanks again Giacomo,
