I think that you have not configured your vhosts right, otherwise you would 
not be getting the error about /usr/htdocs - that is probably the default 
directory path in your apache configuration?

I cannot access a gentoo apache server at this moment to compare and you don't 
really show nearly enough info from your configuration files, so it may be 
worth having a look at this old wiki page (but take it with a pinch of salt 
as things may have changed slightly since):

HTH.
