This is telling you that vixie-cron (which is already installed so will 
not be merged again) is trying to bring in ssmtp for some reason.  I 
don't use exim or know anything about it, but does its ebuild register 
it as a proper MTA?  It seems that your system either doesn't recognize 
exim as an MTA, or perhaps that vixie-cron requires an MTA other than 
exim (postfix is nice :) )
