Of course you may.  Please start a new thread and address it to 
gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org.  What you have done is hit the reply button to 
an existing thread titled "Warning: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set 
to C" and just changed the title (but not the message headers).  This is 
called "thread hijacking" and in most mail and news clients shows up 
underneath the original thread which has nothing to do with your installation 
questions.
