OK, try doing:

Also, have you done a emerge --sync since this started?
Sounds like it might just be a cache corruption - if the cache was
corrupted during the rsync process in an emerge--sync, then just doing
a emerge

Maybe the '/usr/bin/emerge' executable is corrupted. Can I
just scp over a copy from another similar arch machine?
Any other ideas?

Roger that.
Here's an idea, since it's a minimal firewall, that I'm currently using,
and scp works.

If you need another firewall in the interim, I would suggest giving
IPCop a try. I've been using it as a gateway OS for 5 years now and it's
been solid for the entire time.
Or, if you'd really rather stick with Gentoo, you could run IPCop on
another of your K6 machines until you rebuild the
