Anybody know what this is and how to fix it?

firewall ~ # emerge -verbose
!!! Error: -r is an invalid short action or option.

Don't you mean --verbose?

With a single dash, emerge thinks you're trying to do emerge -v -e -r -b -o -s -e, as is the common "slang" parameter passing. (Most apps let you combine things like that, emerge is no exception.)
