<grins> I fell victim to similar issue. I couldn't figure out why my cron jobs refused to run... oops, missed the step to add the cron daemon (I'm using vcron) to the default boot up services. (rc-update add cron default - and thanks to Kevin for pointing me in the right direction).
The Gentoo install guide is fantastic, but you have to be sure you have followed every step. This is partly why I mentioned that it will take 3 or more installs to get the system you want. Hope your compile goes well now.
