This issue is completely out of our hands. You use a custom repository list to fetch a third-party overlay not hosted on Gentoo hardware. Contact the overlay owner to get things fixed.
Actually, this does not come from the custom overlay.xml, but from the Gentoo repositories.xml which contains a wrong source tag for the bitcoin overlay. http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo/xml/htdocs/proj/en/overlays/repositories.xml?r1=1.211&r2=1.212 This should contains: <source type="git">git://gitorious.org/bitcoin/gentoo.git</source> Maybe they were some typo in the overlay adding request?
It should be fixed now. If you do a layman -L, you should now see: * bitcoin [Git ] (git://gitorious.org/bitcoin/gentoo.git
