My guess is that you don't have Gforth installed already, and this is
a step that needs Gforth.  When you build from the tarball of Gforth
(from GNU), the result of this step is already present and this step
is not performed.  My guess is that the Gentoo package does not
contain the resulting files, or they are older than the source files
they are generated from.

Install Gforth from the tarball.  Then the Gentoo package should work, too.
