I installed this by:

cd /var/tmp/portage/basket-0.5.0/work/basket-0.5.0/src/

followed by:

/bin/sh ../libtool --silent
[...snip...]
-lSM -lICE -lpthread -lfam

(basically just adding "-lfam" on the end of the command that failed)
then:
ebuild /usr/portage/x11-misc/basket/basket-0.5.0.ebuild compile
ebuild /usr/portage/x11-misc/basket/basket-0.5.0.ebuild install
ebuild /usr/portage/x11-misc/basket/basket-0.5.0.ebuild qmerge

Hope this helps.

Same problem here. Adding -lfam worked for me as well.

Fixed, thanks for reporting.
