No bones, removed 'noaudio' (doh!) failed again, so I promptly rebooted to _ensure_ there was no way it was cached somewhere and boom didn't work again.

it's NOT a blocker, because it doesn't prevent your gentoo system from being installed.
like mr bones said, take noaudio out of your USE what he missed was that you'll also have to recompile libsdl
