Nothing like that has been reported by anyone else. You can use these instructions to recover: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/portage/doc/manually-fixing-portage.xml
After the steps on that page, emerge still isn't working: Unavailable repository 'gentoo' referenced by masters entry in '/usr/local/portage/layman/x11/metadata/layout.conf' Unavailable repository 'gentoo' referenced by masters entry in '/usr/local/portage/layman/kde-testing/metadata/layout.conf' emerge: incomplete set configuration, missing set(s): "world" and "system" sets defined: kdepim-live, kdebase-4.4, kdebase-4.3, kdebase-4.2, kdebindings-4.2, kdebindings-4.3, kdeutils-4.2, kdeutils-4.3, kdeutils-4.4, kde-3.5, kdebindings-4.4, kde-4.3, kde-live, kdeartwork-3.5, kdeartwork-4.3, kdegraphics-live, kdelibs-live, kdesdk-live, kdebindings-live, kdemultimedia-3.5, kdewebdev-4.4, kdegames-live, kdepim-3.5, kdewebdev-4.3, kdenetwork-3.5, kdegraphics-4.3, kdeaccessibility-3.5, kdegraphics-4.4, kde-4.4, kdeadmin-4.4, kdeoptional-live, qt-extras-live, kdegraphics-4.2, kdedeps-live, kdegames-3.5, kdebase, plasmoids, kdeedu, kdegames, kdeoptional-4.4, kdebase-3.5, kdeedu-live, kdeaccessibility-4.4, kdeaccessibility-4.3, kde-4.2, kdeoptional-4.2, kdesdk-3.5, kdeadmin-4.2, kdeadmin-4.3, kdegames-4.3, kdebase-live, kdegraphics-3.5, kdeartwork-live, kdebindings, qt, kdewebdev-4.2, kdeadmin-live, kdemultimedia-live, kdeoptional-4.3, kdelibs-4.4, koffice-live, qt-all-live-nokia, kdelibs-4.2, kdelibs-4.3, kdewebdev-live, koffice, kde, kdenetwork-4.4, kdenetwork-4.3, kdeedu-4.3, qt-all-4.5-live-nokia, kdeaddons-3.5, qt-all-4.5, kdetoys-3.5, kdesdk, kdetoys-4.3, kdetoys-4.2, kdetoys, kdeaccessibility, kdemultimedia, kdeartwork-4.2, kdemultimedia-4.3, kdemultimedia-4.2, kdetoys-4.4, kdemultimedia-4.4, kdepim-4.3, kdepim-4.2, kdewebdev-3.5, kdewebdev, kdeutils-3.5, kdepim-4.4, kdepim, kdeedu-4.2, kdenetwork-4.2, kdeedu-4.4, kdeartwork, kdeadmin, kdeadmin-3.5, qt-split, kdeutils, kdenetwork-live, kdegames-4.4, kdedeps-4.4, kdeedu-3.5, kdedeps-4.3, kdenetwork, plasmoids-live, kdegames-4.2, kdeaccessibility-live, kdeutils-live, kdeoptional, kdetoys-live, kdelibs, kdesdk-4.3, kdesdk-4.2, kdesdk-4.4, kdegraphics, qt-all-live-kde, kdeartwork-4.4, koffice-2, kde-extras-live, kdeaccessibility-4.2 This usually means that '/usr/share/portage/config/sets.conf' is missing or corrupt.
Please try manually-fixing-portage.xml again, but this time with portage-2.1.6.
Ok, I've managed to get portage working again, by copying sets.conf and make.globals into /usr/share/portage/config. I've reverted to 2.2_rc38 and did the upgrade to 2.2_rc39 again, this time all went fine. I did notice however, that the first emerge cleaned up several orphaned compiled python files, whereas the second emerge did not. After this cleanup, the first emerge crashed and broke my portage installation.
