My issue resolved itself with today's sync, just a few minutes ago.  The
eix-diff that runs at the end of eix-sync showed:

[>]   == dev-python/numpy (1.10.4@01/25/2016; 1.9.2 -> 1.10.4): Fast array and 
numerical python library
[>]   == dev-qt/qtchooser (0_p20151008@01/25/2016; 0_p20150102 -> 0_p20151008): 
Qt4/Qt5 version chooser

And eix is no longer giving me any weirdness about those two packages.

I user rsync.  I don't usually use emerge --metadata, I just ran it
this time on the long-shot hope that it might help.

Since I no longer have the problem, I'm not trying your troubleshooting
advice (which I've snipped), but thanks very much for posting 
it -- I've saved it in case this ever happens to me again.
