You might want to sync and upgrade portage again. I'm using 2.0.51_rc1 and
not seeing these problems.

I tried your suggestion upgrading to 2.0.51_rc1 but I'm still getting
strange errors when I do an "emerge sync"..

Failed cache update: xfce-extra/xfwm4-themes-4.0.3 "Corruption detected
when reading key 'xfwm4-themes-4.0.3'"
...done!
..etc

which seems to do this for every port and doing an "emerge -uDp world"
gives me the following:

root@nelis/home/nelis/httphome>$ emerge -uDp world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Even though I get all these strange errors everything still seems
functional but nevertheless irritating. Anything else I can try ?

It sounds like the rsync mirror you are using is *way* out of date. Have you
seen any updates at all recently? Can you try syncing against the default
mirror (if you are not already)?

After you "emerge sync" from a good mirror. Do "emerge metadata". It
should get rid of the QA notices. It worked for me.
