orbit-2.12.2 appears to not install /usr/lib/libORBit-2.so.0 on at least one of my boxes.

your system time is set correctly ?
The clock appears to be set correctly. It's using NTP along with my other servers and they're all syncronized to the same NTP server. After confirming that, I recompiled and had the same problem. I'll change my date into the future, and see if that doesn't make a difference.
(In reply to comment #2) After getting a little trickier, I've found the following problem in my stderr output from the emerge: make[6]: Warning: File `/usr/include/libIDL-2.0/libIDL/IDL.h' has modification time 5.7e+08 s in the future orbit-idl-backend.c: In function `load_language_backend': That's interesting, because that makes the date: May 5 2023. Most likely an historical problem with the date on this box. I'm emerging libIDL again, and I'll see where it goes from there.
This is a problem more often reported.. by now i'm starting to think we should try to take some measures, but I don't know really how. See #53901 and others which i can't find right now.
That was the problem. It's kind of troubling, since an incorrect clock at some point in the past can sit like a time bomb, and break some future build like that. having said that, I would have to guess that this is an upstream issue though. Normally a make install attempt to build a target if it does exist, and throw up if it does. In this case, it's not doing that. In any case, my immediate problem is resolved. I'll leave it up to you as to whether or not you close it (to remind you of the issue.) Thanks for your help.
As stated above, the issue is fixed.
