Running emerge --search portage tells me that the latest version of portage is 2.0.54 and the version I've got installed is 2.0.54. Is there something else that needs to be updated?
Thanks,
Shawn

Those versions no longer exist in portage. You need to update and then
install in which case you'll get 2.0.58 and 4.4.3 respectively.
