Sounds complicated and risky. Perhaps a reinstallation of OSX, post partitioning and Gentoo installation, is best in the end. Thanks for the input!

That's the way I shrinked my Mac OS X partition. Worked pretty well, but it is a risk. The Gentoo LiveCDs has such a parted installed, but it worked out, that these version could not resize HFS+ any more. I think the last CD that worked well was a 1.4 LiveCD.
