!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "xpra" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- net-misc/xpra-0.0.7.17 (masked by: invalid: IUSE contains defaults, but EAPI doesn't allow them)

For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

Resolution appears to be to specify EAPI in ebuild.

I took a glance at ​Gentoo Development Guide - EAPI Usage and Description and followed the first code example:

$ sudo head /usr/local/portage/net-misc/xpra/xpra-0.0.7.17.ebuild

The updated ebuilds fix that, see #124

(you were right about EAPI - it had been a while since I tested those ebuilds and things have moved on!)
