I'm also experiencing this problem.
Does it happen with any "virtx" based test? For example, do you get the same failure with dev-python/pillow testing?
Unfortunately, my computer broke and in the interest of faster recovery I am no longer running Gentoo Linux. I do plan to run it again, but for now I can be of little assistance.
