How did you try to remove them? You might need to use the inode mumber to remove them, althouh I think a rm -r should work, too. See <http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/delete-remove-files-with-inode-number.html>. Did you force the fsck with -f? Can you mv the dep directory to another name, and re-create it with emerge --metadata?
