Every time I see this error, it is totally benign, and it goes away
after some later emerges.  You could search on gentoo forums or the
gentoo-user list archive, if you want to know more.

You do need to run etc-update to enable the 1 config file or modify your
existing config file. Gentoo does not directly update config files in
/etc and some other directories, which is a pretty good idea, because
occasionally they offer to update fstab, etc., which would not be
pretty.

You should be ready to roll with X, etc., etc.
