Blech. That's one of the last thing the ebuild does before declaring victory. If you're up to a little ebuild patching you can move a copy of the ebuild to your overlay and remove those two files from the line in the src_install() function that starts with "dodoc".

Or you can just wait a little while. That particular ebuild is tracking the HEAD revision of the Emacs CVS tree, which means that each time you emerge it, it's possible to get something a little different. It also means that temporary mistakes by the (Emacs, not Gentoo) developers transiently break the ebuild. It emerged okay for me last week, for instance.
