The current version of portage supports EAPI '7'. You must upgrade to a

newer version of portage before EAPI masked packages can be installed.
You should read a bit more carefully... It seems your sys-apps/portage
is a bit dated.
Upgrade sys-apps/portage first, then it should work.

I read that, but I last updated 2 months ago. So, this update breaks
because portage was updated and new ebuilds using that are already
being pushed out? Seems strict to me ... but /isodate/ being the only
one? I still have a EAPI 4 on my system (1). Plenty of EAPI 5. Was
there something in isodate that needed to be urgently updated -
utilizing the the cutting edge EAPI?
We just had to update portage not so long ago. I admittedly presumed at
first that something else must be wrong, because it didn't occur to me
that portage would be so volatile.
Everything in gentoo is so nicely configurable, but I think another
dimension should be add: configurable volatility - i.e. a configurable
hysteresis for upstream updates.
