Your problem is not with the package but with your ACCEPT_KEYWORDS. Please remove both of the x86 references and try again. The package is very confused as to what architecture it's building for.
it's still the same. i removed the ~x86 on my ACCEPT_KEYWORDS and im still getting the same errors. i tried the command USE="amd64" emerge nvidia-glx and still the same errors.

After further looking at the info you provided, it appears that you have your /etc/make.profile pointing at the x86 profile (default-linux/x86/2005.0). Please relink your make.profile by: rm -f /etc/make.profile ln -sf /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/amd64/2005.0 /etc/make.profile This should fix this but having this is a "bad thing". I don't know what else may be messed up with your install after this.
that solves it! after switching the x86 profile to amd64 everything worked fine. thanks for the big help!
