Thats not a vhost configuration, so it's a bit confusing why your trying
to use Gentoo's default vhost config file and making non vhost configs
and I bet it isn't liking the missing:

NameVirtualHost *:80 (You will have to check the apache2 doc for the
VirtualIP version of NameVirtualHost)

<VirtualHost *:80>

If you want to make a non vhost configuration, then do so from the
ground up, don't mix vhost and non vhost unless you want a mess.

The reason you get :80 already bound, is because your configuration bind
twice to the same IP. It's Apache itself that bind twice and bails on
the second attempt.

Not having used this configuration layout in years, I would guess
ServerName is the one creating the listening socket, maybe because it's
placed before Listen.

A workaround has been found (see below).
