I had that problem when I upgraded to the 2005.0 profile, then opened
ufed to change a USE flag. Twenty-five or so flags, gone.

I reconstructed them by using

"emerge avDt --newuse world"

and NOT executing, but looking for the changes in USE flags marked by
an "*".

I edited /etc/make.conf by hand.

There may be an easier way, but this worked.
