I get the same backtrace whenever I run:

$ emerge -p openoffice

I don't know if this is important, but I tried upgrading to
openoffice-1.1.0 about a week ago, and it barfed.  Maybe it left
portage in a bad state.

I only see this with openoffice.  Might openoffice be in your list of
packages?  Or did you have a previous emerge failure?

NOTE: I don't actually know what to do about it in either case.  But this
      could be useful information in the bug report.
