The latest ADOdb version in Gentoo is 4.65-r1. That version (as well as 4.65 marked as stable) has a bug with AutoExecute(...UPDATE...) (updates are not carried out) which prevents several apps from working which rely on ADOdb. Therefore, please upgrade to 4.68.
dev-php/adodb-4.68 is in the tree now, it succeds to 4.65-r1 (wich was deleted). 4.68 only works and supports the new-style PHP (dev-lang/php), so you'll need to migrate to that if you didn't already to use AdoDB 4.68, you can find the guide to do that at [1].
