An interesting conundrum indeed.
You can't install (due to it being blocked) ieee80211-1.0.3 with
ipw2100-1.1.0 merged
And from the error message you posted it looks like you can't merge
ipw2100 (>1.1.0) without having the ieee80211 package installed.
So an unmerge of the old version and emerge of the newer version (which
isn't ideal) was the only way to upgrade ipw2100, which has worked

That fails with this...

Would the solution be to unmerge ipw2100-1.1.0, then emerge -uDv world, then
emerge ipw2100 ?

looking at the list of updates after a fresh install of 2005.1 (2.6.12-r6)
on my laptop which has both wired and wireless networking, I see an entry
which says.

After reading the portage documentation online, I'm a little confused.
Should I unmerge ipw2100-1.1.0 in order for the ieee package to emerge?
(when I read through the packages that were necessary for the wireless to
work, I found that I should emerge both. Any input, as always, is
appreciated.

With a quick look at that it looks like the old version of
net-wireless/ipw2100 is causing ieee80211-1.0.3 to be blocked.
Give this a go:
Update this package first
# emerge -u ipw2100 (or emerge --nodeps -u ipw2100 if that doesn't go)
Then try updating as you did before and see if it still occurs
