This is a portage bug and has nothing to do with catalyst. You'd encounter this
same problem when emerging the same packages in a stage3 chroot.
No, it is a portage feature. You cannot install two packages which
block each other. If you want postfix in your stage4, build a set of
lower stages (you should *always* do this, anyway) with your
customizations (like virtual/mta being postfix) and then rebuild your
stage4.
The "bug" I was referring to was that portage will show a blocker when you do
something like 'emerge vixie-cron postfix', even though postfix satisfies the
virtual/mta that vixie-cron RDEPENDs on.
Like Chris said, the only way around this is to change the default provider for
virtual/mta in the profile you're using in your snapshot.
