The URL is wrong or the git repo doesn't exist. If my assumption is wrong, I'll do the attachments.
Actually, there is more info in the build log.

I suggest not using the 9999 versions. Looks like upstream is misconfigured.
yes, upstream's git server is currently down. not much we can do.
The problem is that 999 is the default version to use for prefix. If that's not the right version to use, then that should not be the default version.

That is just wrong, check your portage etc files. I'm guessing that *you* told portage to unmask the 9999 version with --autounmask-write. %% epkginfo iputils * net-misc/iputils [gentoo] Herd: base-system (base-system@gentoo.org) Maintainer: None specified Upstream: None specified Homepage: http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/Net:Iputils Location: /home/jolexa/portage/global/portage_tree/net-misc/iputils Keywords: 20101006-r2:0: alpha amd64 arm hppa ia64 m68k ppc ppc64 s390 sh sparc x86 ~amd64-linux ~mips ~ppc-aix ~x86-linux Keywords: 99999999:0:
That's true, but I used --autounmask-write, but that's because portage told me that I needed to. Why did that option choose that version? Or does it always choose the highest version number?
--autounmask-keep-masks [ y | n ] If --autounmask is enabled, no package.unmask or ** keyword changes will be created. This leads to unsatisfied dependencies if no other solution exists. You forgot the above, from emerge(1)
