I'm not sure if I should ask you but, you are running as root are you :?
If not, try to run the emerge process as root


From the install guide..
Quote:
9.Unpack the stage you want to use

Now it's time to extract the compressed stage tarball of your choice to /mnt/gentoo. Then, we'll chroot over to the new Gentoo Linux build installation.

Important: Be sure to use the p option with tar. Forgetting to do this will cause certain files to contain incorrect permissions.

Important: If you are using the "from scratch, build everything" install method, you will want to use the stage1-ix86-1.2.tbz2 image. If you're using one of our bigger CDs, you'll also have a choice of a stage2 and stage3 image. These images allow you to save time at the expense of configurability (we've already chosen compiler optimizations and default USE variables for you.) The stage3 image now also includes complete linux sources and a Portage tree snapshot, eliminating the need to do an emerge rsync later.



did you use the p when using tar.. :?

I have exactly the same problem with tcl8.0. I went a little further though and created the tcl8.0 directory manually and tried again. This failed on sub-directories of tcl8.0 (http2.0, http1.0, opt0.1) which I also created and the build then failed on sub-directories under these. :?

I can't see the fault being with the 'p' flag on the original tar though - I've installed alot of stuff with no problems. And the fact that I can create the directories required manually implies that it isn't a simple file permission problem - more likely to be a conflict in the package.

I am definitely running the emerge as root
