It hasn't been supported by upstream for 2 years.
The only way to even attempt to install it is to retrieve the ebuild from sources.gentoo.org (gentoo-x86 - ignore the name as the same tree is used for all archs). However this will almost certainly fail due to issues with dependencies and patches. The most sensible route would be to upgrade your webapps to support PHP5 (it shouldn't be the hard and you'll gain security and probably performance from doing so). AllenJB
