OK, did a bit more digging, it looks like part of the grooveshark URL happens to be a python shebang. If I escape both # and ! in the shell, the correct extractor kicks in and the download is successful. I see that "fix_python_shebang" is the last operation in the current portage ebuild so I'll assume that the gentoo maintainer for the package is on top of this and will get it unmasked soon. Thanks for all the hard work!
