When doing emerge -u world, it installed autoconf-2.60, then later on down the list tried to emerge shadow-4.0.17-r1, which fails. Seems it's looking for 2.59, not the newly installed 2.60. Here's contents of /var/tmp/portage/shadow-4.0.17-r1/temp/autoconf-11884.out: ac-wrapper: /usr/bin/autoconf-2.59 is missing or not executable. Please try emerging the correct version of autoconf.

Emerge autoconf-wrapper-3.2-r2 and try again. ;)

Good, closing. ;)
