well, the profile points to the multilib profile.  i'm on it and don't
have any real problems.
could you describe in detail what you're using:
should be useful the following:

emerge --info
contents of /etc/make.conf
contents of /etc/fstab
contents of /usr/src/linux/.config
what stage are you using and from where. funtoo stage3 tars are based
on portage tree and are built automatically every week so this won't
have you rebuild a lot of stuff (amd64 ones)
are you doing a fresh install or an upgrade?
on an upgrade are you changin a lot of stuff?!

if i were you and were doing a fresh install i'd just save the confs,
check that they're safe, and download a new portage and stage3 from
funtoo, untar them and then emerge world again to rebuild with the
personal confs. this way you'll have a 90% of chance that everything
is going well. after cleaning everything. also i'd set up an lvm -
luks home partition so that personal data is encrypted. there are
how-to's about this on gentoo-wiki and in the forums.
