The -9999 ebuild uses epatch without inheriting eutils. You should either add inherit eutils to the top of the ebuild or bump the ebuild to EAPI=6 and replace epatch by eapply.
Fixed by 31a0d0c4b. I've previously migrated a few other malingering ebuilds over to EAPI 6. So, doing so here as well seemed like the least awful solution. See #49 for further commentary, gratitude, and adulation.
