You have stumbled upon a heretofore unseen behaviour of revdep-rebuild :-) In other words "we ain't never seen it do that before..." Let's first establish where you are at in the installation. Are you following the Installation Guide at gentoo.org? If so, what point in the guide are you at? Are you still in the chroot environment, or have you completed that part and successfully rebooted at least once? Do you have any personal customizations in your shell environment? Is the shell bash?
