When you install Gentoo and you run fdisk just hit 'p' and it will show your partition table. Just use the free space you created. Most likely WinXP will be on /dev/hda1.
It's written in the handbook.

Thanks to Benjamin Sobotta and James Rushton for their answers. I now find that I don't
know how to prepare my disk so Windows XP is kept intact and room is made for Gentoo. How do I know where Windows XP is mounted (always /dev/hda6 or ...)?

Hello,
I'm using Win XP and would like to install Gentoo on the same computer,
so I can choose between Gento Linux or Win XP when the computer is
started. I haven't found out how to do this in the "handbook". Have I missed som
information or could you point me to the instructions to achieve this
behavior with GRUB?
Sincerely Fredrik Lundgren
