The first time you install Gentoo, it's relatively easy to get cyclic
dependencies since you have only the minimal set of packages installed
(this set is called @system, BTW). Try this:

USE="-doc -X" emerge -pv systemd vi

I'm sure most of the cyclic dependencies will break, and for the first
leg of the installation you don't need X nor documentation.

Did you selected a profile different from the default one?

Regards.
