Your Python is hosed. Doesn't Sabayon provide binary packages of those? I'd recommend trying to re-install their python package or reporting a bug to them that the Python they're building is hosed.

Ok. Closing. If the problem appears again report it to bugs.sabayonlinux.org. If they find it's a bug with Gentoo, then reopen this bug again. Thanks.
