Something's strange with your portage tree. I just did the same after a 
sync:

$ equery l -p nvidia-kernel
[ Searching for package 'nvidia-kernel' in all categories among: ]
  * installed packages
[I--] [ ~] media-video/nvidia-kernel-1.0.8756 (0)

Are you sure you don't have anything in /etc/portage/package.mask that 
may be blocking?

Also, try "emerge --metadata" to rebuild the portage cache.
