Actually, I had a somewhat similar problem just this afternoon =) It seems that I had quake2-icculus installed, but the ebuild for it was called quake2-relnev. Go check in /var/db/pkg and see if you can find either an ebuild called PyXML-0.8.2 or a directory with that name instead and run "emerge -C <whole path to ebuild-file> -p" and see if that solves it (you'll of course have to reemerge the package if you want it of something depends on it).
