The “lsb_release –ir” commands seems to provide what we are looking for and works under a number of popular distributions. I’ve tested the command using Gentoo 2005.0 text install and the command was not found. Does Gentoo support “lsb_release –ir” command?

There is no such thing as a "release" in gentoo. You could get the current profile by reading the link in /etc/make.profile.

AFAIR gentoo won't ever be LSB compliant. It doesn't really make sense on such a customizable distribution.
