You should add multilib to your make.conf file USE flags.  If it is not
a global need, put it in package.use.

Question, are you new to Gentoo?  If you are, maybe we need to go more
into detail here.

multilib is in both /etc/make.conf and in /etc/portage/package.use.  In fact this is the line I have in the package.use file for gcc:

=sys-devel/gcc-4.2.3 multislot multilib altivec build fortran nls nocxx doc gcj gtk hardened libffi objc vanilla ip28 ip32r10k n32 n64 objc-gc mudflap objc++  openmp -sandbox

No, I'm not entirely new to Gentoo. I just recently returned after approximately 2 years with Ubuntu. I missed Gentoo and portage. Was reintroduced to it with Sabayon Linux and just came back to full blown Gentoo. Still a little rusty with portage and gcc. Should have stuck with Gentoo all along.
Thank you,
