I'm pretty much guessing that this is a problem with dracut. Please re-assign among yourselves. :)
You, systemd guys, will actually be needed for solving the issue, if it's a Dracut issue, so don't remove yourselves from CC, pls.
This is a dracut issue. For some reasons, it assumes that it can run "reboot" with the "--no-wall" parameter. In Gentoo, the reboot utility does not accept this parameter and works just as intended without it. So, to solve this bug, you just need to remove all instances of --no-wall from /usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/99shutdown/shutdown.sh
