I suggest a emerge bitchx >> output.txt.. Something tells me that its erroring out but not realizing it. openmosix-user did this to me when I was trying to figure out one day where my mtop was.. I had forgot to change the linux symbol and the configure was failing. For some reason, emerge doesn't always detect this. It then went ahead and installed openmosix-user with nothing. Which is what you got..
