The file doesn't seem to be available from those donwload sources anymore. Do:

   nano -w /usr/portage/syslibs/db/db-3.2.9.ebuild

then change the line that says:

   SRC_URI="http://www.sleepycat.com/update/${PV}/${P}.tar.gz"

to:

   SRC_URI="http://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/aux/${PV}/${P}.tar.gz"

Issue Ctrl + X to exit, and answer (Y)es when you're prompted to save. That should sort it.
