The ivtvdev driver has been added to portage with the patches needed to get it working with Xorg 7.1.

No genius I am but yes the compiler used to build the kernel will have to be used to build the modules. The error, no clue but it works for me. Build errors should be reported on b.g.o but I suspect there is something wrong in your setup. I would remove the kernel source, re-emerge the kernel source, rebuild from the new source and then try and build ivtv again. If this does not work report it with emerge --info and the build error.
