Mount Xoom/Android filesystem while in debug mode under gentoo

Step 1: Create a local overlay if you don't have one.
(if you already have one, skip to step 2)
mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/myoverlay

in /etc/make.conf:
source /var/lib/layman/make.conf # should be there already from layman
PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage/myoverlay $PORTDIR_OVERLAY"
... if you have layman installed or :
PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage/myoverlay"


Step 2: Put this ebuild in your local overlay in sys-fs/mtpfs
cd /usr/local/portage/myoverlay
mkdir -p sys-fs/mtpfs
cd sys-fs/mtpfs

Step 3: Install it
ebuild mtpfs-0.9.ebuild digest
emerge mtpfs

Step 4: Mount and enjoy
Be sure your device is connected and in debug mode.
mkdir /mnt/xoom
mtpfs -o allow_other /mnt/xoom

Credits to thebytes, I merely improved what he was doing by fixing the ebuild from the original gentoo bugreport.
