I ran into a similar problem, compounded by the fact
that it was checking the wrong HDD directory.
The solution was to update to the latest testing version of Portage,
when it checked the correct dir, which had enough space.
It needed  c 3,5 GB  ( 3,36 GB  near the end, but I missed the peak),
which is the usual amount.  It took  1 h 56 m  with my Core 2 Duo CPU.
