Usually when you see that, it was removed from the tree. Some packages
are upgraded in the tree then a little while later, older versions are
removed from the tree. I've seen that several times. There may be
other reasons for that but that is the one I see quite often.
By the way, if for some reason you have to have that version, you can
grab the ebuild and put it in a local overlay. Make sure you don't let
that get updated/removed before you do that tho.
Hope that helps.
