http://dev.gentoo.org/~heroxbd/boostrap-rap.sh half a year old now. Please give



    http://prefix.gentooexperimental.org/hg/prefix-tree/raw-file/default/scripts/bootstrap-prefix.sh



a try, as noted in



    http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/gentoo-alt/prefix/bootstrap.xml



@redlizard may comment on this issue. He has been working on bootstrap.
