Sorry for the excessive comments. Going between two boxes to file this - no easy cut/paste working yet on the box with this issue. Here's the final output before it dies so you don't have to download the whole log.

Bacuase I'm experiencing the same problem on my freshly installed laptop I've started a thread in the forums here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=1066440

Soon more people came in experiencing the exact same error.

The only similarity we;ve found is that everyone seems to bee using Reiser4 as a filesystem. One had xorg working on XFS but after a reinstall of gentoo with Reiser4 coudn't emerge xorg anymore. Could it be that it has something to do with the Reiser4 filesystem?

Hope this info proves usefull. 
Comment 5 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-04-21 16:48:35 UTC
I'd definitely blame it on reiser4. Even reiser3 loses files, and it's nowhere near as developmental.
