In my recent troubles with emerge -ev world, I had a similar problem,
which was cured by converting the "firefox" use flag into "xulrunner".

Firefox 3 has been ported to use xulrunner [1,2,3] instead of gecko as
rendering engine. The main advantage of xulrunner for source based
distributions like gentoo is that building firefox (and other apps which
are ported to xulrunner) is way faster than before, because they can use
xulrunner as a shared runtime environment. This is more beneficial if
you use many apps based on xulrunner. Before you needed the runtime
environment for every single app. Now the source of firefox, thunderbird
and sunbird is about three times the size of seamonkey which contains
the same functionalities of the three apps. With the new xulrunner this
will change and you save a lot of bandwith too.
As for myself I have replaced the firefox use-flags with xulrunner,
although it will take some time to gain benefit from this.
