Try a
$ emerge -vp xawtv
and see if the mmx useflag is set in that output... If not, then do a 
$ emerge --info
and see if the useflag output from that command includes mmx. If not,
you've probably got a typo of some sort in your make.conf since the mmx
useflag is not profile-masked on the amd64 (use.mask under your
/etc/make.profile symlink).

Might be, but probably not ;)
