This seems like cause for alarm:

Something is definitely wrong with your clock.

Then we have this:

Here is the libtool link from the compile phase. It looks correct, but
notice that it warns you about the clock problems:

Then in the install phase, you will see that make can't figure out what
is up-to-date (because the clock is off) so it decides everything needs
to be rebuilt.

In the install phase, DESTDIR is set to the PORTAGE_TEMP directory and
libtool is called with -rpath set to the temp dir. This is what's
causing the QA warning. The problem is that we aren't supposed to be
building anything at this point. It is the INSTALL phase after all:

> /usr/bin/libtool --tag=CC  --mode=link i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -rpath /var/tmp/portage/dev-util/dialog-1.1.20100428/image//usr/lib -version-info `cut -f1 ./VERSION`   -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -o libdialog.la trace.lo rc.lo calendar.lo fselect.lo timebox.lo formbox.lo guage.lo pause.lo progressbox.lo tailbox.lo mixedform.lo mixedgauge.lo arrows.lo buttons.lo checklist.lo columns.lo dlg_keys.lo editbox.lo inputbox.lo inputstr.lo menubox.lo mouse.lo mousewget.lo msgbox.lo textbox.lo ui_getc.lo util.lo version.lo yesno.lo -L/usr/lib -lncursesw -lm 

So, the short of it is that you need to fix your clock. It needs to be
set reasonably close to the actual time and the timezone needs to be set
correctly as well. You might also look into net-misc/ntp to set the
clock from the network.

If your clock is set correctly, there's something horribly wrong and it
will require additional troubleshooting.
