SOLUTION

It is recommended that all Gentoo Linux users who are running
dev-db/postgresql-7.2.1-r2 and earlier update their systems
as follows:

emerge rsync
emerge postgresql
emerge clean

postgresql-7.2.2 is currently only available for x86. Sparc and ppc will
be available when it's been tested on these archs.
