Which users are involved? 
I assume you are emerging as root, and you have been doing you manual 
modification as root as well.

Just a guess: as part of the emerge-command, chmod may be called as user 
'portage', who does not have the right to change modifications of this file.

Just another guess: have a look at your /etc/portage/make.conf, and check the 
FEATURES variable. If it contains 'userpriv', remove it and try again.
