You are not alone.  I have the same here:

root@fireball / # mount
rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)
/dev/root on / type reiserfs (rw,relatime)
proc on /proc type proc (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime)
rc-svcdir on /lib64/rc/init.d type tmpfs 
(rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,size=1024k,mode=755)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime)
debugfs on /sys/kernel/debug type debugfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime)
udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,relatime,size=10240k,mode=755)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,gid=5,mode=620)
shm on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime)
/dev/sda1 on /boot type ext2 (rw)
/dev/sda8 on /var type ext3 (rw,commit=0)
/dev/sda6 on /usr/portage type ext3 (rw,commit=0)
/dev/sda7 on /home type reiserfs (rw)
/dev/sdc1 on /data type reiserfs (rw)
usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,devmode=0664,devgid=85)
binfmt_misc on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc 
(rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
root@fireball / #


I think I read a while back this is a openrc thing.  It's just the new 
way of doing things.  No idea why but might be something we can't change.
