I think it does, but probably you had an older version installed
previously and the upgrade doesn't fix it because the directory
already existed before and so it doesn't "overwrite" the directory in
the ROOT with the one from the sandbox.

Can you try to rmdir the /var/cache/cpushare directory and re-emerge
the package? That should create the directory with the right
permissions.

Thanks!
