I had success in the past using ebuild instead of emerge. Check the man 
page, briefly emerge is equivalent to the following steps in sequence:

$ ebuild fetch
$ ebuild unpack
$ ebuild compile
$ ebuild install
$ ebuild qmerge

Running 'make' in the temp dir followed by the last two ebuild steps 
only (install and qmerge) should work.
