Thank you. Didn't think about that. Don't know why though.
My MAKEOPTS was "-j32". Looks like that was too many for package like qtwebengine.
Solved the problem with creating specific environment for qtwebengine and setting it up in /etc/portage/package.env/
It was veeeery long build process but this time it finished successfully. I think I'll try to find more appropriate value for qtwebengine which could be used with 32GB of RAM.

Thanks again!

Alexey,
����you can check /etc/portage/make.conf and see if there is a
MAKEOPTS="-j8" or similar variable. If not, add it and make the number
of jobs small, like "-j2". I have a similar problem when I build
sys-devel/binutils; it is a huge memory hog.
