So it does...

> makepkg -sf
==> Making package: pacman-contrib 3.4.0-1 (Fri Jun 18 11:35:32 EST 2010)
==> Checking Runtime Dependencies...
==> ERROR: 'pacman' returned a fatal error (1): error: directive 'ICanHazBreakage' without value not recognized
error: config file /etc/pacman.conf, line 24: problem in options section
==> Checking Buildtime Dependencies...
==> Retrieving Sources...

Is this new to pacman-3.4?

Not specific to pacman-3.4. This chroot uses pacman-3.3:
