The -s option of formail allows you to specify an argument, which is a 
program name. This program will be run for each message, with the 
message on the stdin. So if you have such a program that delivers to a 
maildir, you can use it. procmail itself is one such program, so you 
should be able to do something like

| formail +1 -ds procmail .procmailrc.gentoo

and then have .procmailrc.gentoo say something like
