looking at the list of updates after a fresh install of 2005.1 (2.6.12-r6)

[ebuild U] net-wirelss/ipw2100-1.1.2-r1 [1.1.0] -debug 96kb
After reading the portage documentation online, I'm a little confused.
Should I unmerge ipw2100-1.1.0 in order for the ieee package to emerge?
(when I read through the packages that were necessary for the wireless to
work, I found that I should emerge both. Any input, as always, is
appreciated.

With a quick look at that it looks like the old version of
net-wireless/ipw2100 is causing ieee80211-1.0.3 to be blocked.
Give this a go:
Update this package first
# emerge -u ipw2100 (or emerge --nodeps -u ipw2100 if that doesn't go)
Then try updating as you did before and see if it still occurs
