Besides using the incorrect format for the files, your dnsdomainname should
not include the hostname:

cornholio ~ # cat /etc/conf.d/hostname
# /etc/conf.d/hostname
# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/conf.d/hostname,v 1.2.4.1

# Set to the hostname of this machine
HOSTNAME="cornholio"
cornholio ~ # cat /etc/conf.d/domainname
# /etc/conf.d/domainname
# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/conf.d/domainname,v

# When setting up resolv.conf, what should take precedence?
# If you wish to always override DHCP/whatever, set this to 1.
OVERRIDE=1

# To have a proper FQDN, you need to setup /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf
# properly (domain entry in /etc/resolv.conf, and FQDN in /etc/hosts).
#
DNSDOMAIN="joat.com"

# This only set what /bin/hostname returns.  If you need to setup NIS,
