Looking at the output of the following commands should answer your question.
# env | grep ^CONFIG_PROTECT
# find /etc/env.d | xargs grep
If you really have an empty CONFIG_PROTECT,
dispatch-conf didn't touch
this file, it was replaced during emerge. You must
fix this before
emerging anything else or you will overwrite more
config files.
What do
emerge --info | grep CONFIG
and
grep CONFIG /etc/make.conf
show?

WHY did you set that?? Remove it! Read the output of:

Once you marked some directories from protection,
emerge will, instead of
using the file from a package, install the file from
a package
as ._cfg-filename (or somesuch). Tools like
dispatch-conf and
etc-update are then used to merge your

You've told portage to overwrite any config files in /etc, or anywhere
else, whenever you update a package. dispatch-conf certainly isn't to
blame, the damage is
One of the files dispatch-conf over-wrote without

FWIW this all took place after emerge
baselayout-1.12.5-r1 which issued a warning to
/bin/ls /etc/init.d/net.* | grep -v '/net.lo$' | xargs
-n1 ln -svfn net.lo
Could that have done it?
No that just ensures that all your net init
