If sys-apps/accountsservice is compiled with USE=-introspection, gnome-shell crashes with the fail whale dialogue on startup and ~/.xsession-errors is filled with:

    JS ERROR: !!!     message = '"Requiring AccountsService, version none: Typelib file for namespace 'AccountsService' (any version) not found"'
    JS ERROR: !!!   Exception was: Error: Requiring AccountsService, version none: Typelib file for namespace 'AccountsService' (any version) not found
    JS ERROR: !!!     lineNumber = '0'
    JS ERROR: !!!     fileName = '"gjs_throw"'
    JS ERROR: !!!     stack = '"("Requiring AccountsService, version none: Typelib file for namespace 'AccountsService' (any version) not found")@gjs_throw:0
@/usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/endSessionDialog.js:25

This problem is fixed when sys-apps/accountsservice is built with USE=introspection. So I *think* that 'sys-apps/accountsservice[introspection]' should be added to the RDEPEND variable in the gnome-shell ebuild.
(I would have added a patch, but I'm too ignorant to figure out how the 'patch' command works...)

This is on ~amd64 btw, with manually unmasked gnome-shell and dependencies.
