I'm glad you got yours sorted out but I'm still curious as to how it is on in one place and off somewhere else. I know a dev has it set that way and I'm SURE he/she has a good reason for it. I just don't know where that is done.
Have a look at the files in /usr/portage/profiles/base/. Reading the comments turned on the light bulb for me.
We can add this to the weird things happen section. lol
Actually, I created the problem for myself, which is not so weird at all. Happens every day :( At the time I switched to sharing portage over NFS, I didn't really expect it to work, so I took some shortcuts by making symlinks where I knew they really didn't belong -- but I figured I'd be undoing everything again in a few minutes anyway. Dumb! Do it right the first time...
