I can't reproduce this. gcc-config wants to be installed and masking it yields the correct error message. Can you still reproduce it?
By the way, how did you upgrade portage? If you just renamed the ebuild or installed from the tarball manually then the behaviour is known and fixed already. There is a patch that gets applied when installed via portage.

There is a patch that gets applied when installed via portage. > Installed using the ebuild after cvs up. I just did cvs up and received no updates. The patch does seem to applied: >>> Unpacking portage-2.1_pre2.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/portage-2.1_pre2/work patching file pym/portage.py >>> Source unpacked. >>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/portage-2.1_pre2/work/portage-2.1_pre2 ... I can also try svn HEAD to see if this is fixed there.
I did a diff between _pre2 + patch and trunk and there's no difference in any of the dependency stuff. Would you happen to be using package.provided?
What would be even better is shell-access (no root) on a box where this is reproducable. ;)
