are you sure dhcpcd is emerged?

try emerge -p dhcpcd and see if anything is missing.
It's also possible if you mix stable with testing that there's a conflict that needs addressing. By default dhcpcd should run at boot with no user intervention after it's emerged. Look for /etc/conf.d/dhcpcd and see if anything in that config file looks wrong as well.
