OK, a made a maligned ebuild which grabbed Getopt::Simple and installed it (albeit in the wrong directory : ) and it works now. I'm guessing that since most of the ebuilds refer to a single module, when I grepped for Getopt there's not an ebuild that pulls it in. I had assumed there were overarching ebuilds instead, i.e. the ebuild grabs a tgz that has lots of modules in it instead of just one.

If this script is extremely useful, I'll try to make a good ebuild for Getopt, but not until I know more about the system.

Thanks =]

Have a look at g-cpan.pl.
