I had the same problem, and found this in the modular Xorg WIKI:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Modular_Xorg#.27emerge_-u_world.27_wants_to_install_xorg-x11_6.x_or_virtual.2Fx11
However, putting "x11-base/xorg-x11-6*" in
/etc/portage/profile/package.provided doesn't seem to work. Instead I
just put in "x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8" and then the emerge -u world worked
fine without wanting the old xorg-x11-6.8. I suppose in your case maybe
you want "x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9" in there as well?
