luatex-0.40.5 unconditionally depends on X, thus making texlive unusable on mashines without X installed because of unconditional dependency on luatex (at least for texlive-2008.ebuild). If this cannot be fixed in luatex, then luatex itself should be optional for texlive.

configure script of luatex-0.40.5 requires X libs to be available: checking for installed fontconfig headers and library... yes checking for X... no configure: error: Sorry, could not find required X include and library files.

Confirmed. I'm building a new server amd64, USE="-X" and this is preventing and emerge of texlive. checking for installed fontconfig headers and library... yes checking for X... no configure: error: Sorry, could not find required X include and library files. make[1]: *** [subtexk] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/dev-tex/luatex-0.40.5/work/luatex-beta-0.40.5/source/texk' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
See http://www.mail-archive.com/dev-luatex@ntg.nl/msg00928.html for discussion and fix. However, I added: src_configure() { ... econf \ ... --without-mf-x-toolkit \ --without-x to the ebuild, and it had no effect. I think the problem could be adjusted here in the ebuild, but I don't know why that didn't work. Later in the above thread, a reference was made to a commit in the "TL" (TexLive?) SVN that improves option handling in this area.
thanks, i was able to reproduce the issue on a X-less chroot; it should be fixed now by adding --without-x. @Jeff: if this isn't enough for you, please post a full build log.
It works for me with --without-x added to econf option list.
