Or you don't have proper evdev support in the kernel? Or is your xorg.conf telling X to use a different driver? I don't have access to a Gentoo machine right now, but when I look at a similar machine (same exact keyboard though). I get this: $ egrep -i '(key|evdev)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log (II) Cannot locate a core keyboard device.

So I'm guessing it's the X config. Then again, it might be gpm. Are you using gpm? Maybe it's grabbing the keyboard and not letting X have it.
