With a quick look at that it looks like the old version of 
net-wireless/ipw2100 is causing ieee80211-1.0.3 to be blocked.

Give this a go:

Update this package first
# emerge -u ipw2100   (or emerge --nodeps -u ipw2100 if that doesn't go)

Then try updating as you did before and see if it still occurs
