Were you trying to emerge this with X not started?
X was started, any permission problems I could check?
Do you have DISPLAY set for root? If not, could you set that and try it, and if that doesn't work try setting xhost to allow localhost connections before you try to emerge it? If you want to try a shot at fixing this, please take a look at /usr/portage/eclass/virtual.eclass and see if anything odd about your X setup might be causing this to fail and let us know so we can pass it on to the maintainer of virtualx.
I can no longer reproduce this bug and will therefore close it.
