Can you please test paxmark.sh from commit 84ca1170 and let me know.

Thanks for the report but if its not too much of a bother, can you open 
a bug at bugs.gentoo.org next time because it makes it so much easier to 
properly track bugs that way.  You can always discuss bugs on the list 
(or anywhere you can catch me like IRC) but having the report in 
bugs.g.o leave behind a historical memory of what we did.
