Creating directory '/home/localhost/joelb/src/sequedex/develop-eggs'. Generated script '/home/localhost/joelb/src/sequedex/bin/buildout'. Not sure whether this is a setuptools problem, but setuptools on gentoo is getting pretty far behind the current setuptools release.
python-2.7.7-r1000 does not exist in the gentoo repository. You probably meant to file a bug for Funtoo or Progress overlay.
bootstrap.py script without --allow-site-packages option downloads and uses a version of Setuptools hardcoded in https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ez_setup.py instead of a version installed by Portage. Does problem occur for you with Setuptools 4.0.1? Try in this way: wget https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/setuptools/setuptools-4.0.1.tar.gz tar -xzf setuptools-4.0.1.tar.gz wget http://downloads.buildout.org/2/bootstrap.py export http_proxy=...
