Standard on linux (and a number of other distros), only users in group
wheel may issue su to root.  Add your user to group wheel.

I don't have a clue what happened.  As a rule I only run 'emerge -p[uU]v
world'; then I emerge packages that I like manually.  If things like
gcc, glibc, xfree, baselayout, etc. (i.e. "very important" packages), I
usually wait a week or to to get comments from the list.
