This is now in the sunrise overlay. Once it is reviewed, you can find it at: http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/sunrise/browser/reviewed/mail-filter/libdkim-exim Until then, you can find it at: http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/sunrise/browser/sunrise/mail-filter/libdkim-exim
sunrise ebuild looks ok, I wonder if one can get around the makefile patch with some extra calls from the ebuild though.
You might also try looking at the ebuild in bug #262919. It sources the libdkim library directly. It still requires some patching but patches are applied directly to libdkim source rather than to the exim fork.
As of version 4.70, Exim has native support for DKIM and doesn't need an external library like libdkim(-exim) any more. There is already a request for the inclusion of Exim 4.70/4.71 into the portage tree, see bug #293982.
exim-4.71 has just entered the tree, making a separate package unnecessary per comment #12
