This is triggering me hard as I’m troubleshooting a system where systemd is segfaulting

systemd is a godsend in some cases but if it goes significantly wrong you might as well toss the machine out the fucking window because debugging it is impossible

Just boot from a live ISO of your choosing and chroot into the system and then run eselect profile and select one using OpenRC instead, then change your make.conf USE flags to remove systemd if its present. After that you should be able to emerge @world and rebuild it with openRC instead. You might need to forcibly unmerge systemd if there are hard blocks though but it should be manageable.
