Arg, now you've got me thinking again...  when I run grub and type in
"root (hd0,2)", it responds with "unrecognized file system".  Then if I 
type in "setup (hd0)" after that it says something like "can't mount 
filesystem".  I tried it in all kinds of configurations and the only 
thing that worked was:

root (hd0,2)
setup (hd0,2)

Maybe it can't write to the bootloader since the Windows XP one is 
already there?  The last time I installed my sistem, I installed 
gentoo/grub first, then Windows XP second.   

later,
ajay
