>From the gihub link you posted earlier, I found this file:

https://github.com/MythTV/packaging/blob/master/Gentoo/media-tv/mythtv/mythtv-0.24_p20110329.ebuild

That appears to be the one that actually configures/builds mythtv,
and there's no mention of --enable-ivtv therein.

If you can build from the source package, then add that config option
to that file and try again?
