This seems that the upgrade of portage did not complete successfully and a mix of files from the two versions is being used. Can you try the upgrade again? If it still doesn't work, please attach the output of "python -v /usr/bin/emerge".

Interesting if i use python to execute emerge(python /usr/bin/emerge) it works fine?
How about a `which emerge`? There should be no difference between "emerge" and "python -v /usr/bin/emerge" other than verbose output about loading modules. Perhaps you have a copy of an old version of emerge in your path?
hrm there was a copy of emerge in /bin. deleting that fixed everything up, thanks for the help.
Closing as invalid.
