most problems i get lately with portage are solved by temporary inserting USE="-doc" in /etc/make.conf (somehow it doesn't work from the command line for me :?)

...any explanation for both phaenomena?

The syntax
Code:
USE="-doc" emerge anything
is only valid for sh and compatible shells (bash, zsh, ...). AFAIK tcsh and csh doesn't understand this.
Semanticly equivalent are (for bash):
Code:
export USE="-doc"
emerge anything
unset USE

and for tcsh:
Code:
setenv USE "-doc"
emerge anything
unsetenv USE

To see which USE flags are in use for a specific ebuild, try
Code:
emerge -pv anything
