I can confirm this problem. I have slib-3.1.4 installed.

Yes,  dev-scheme/slib-3.1.4

------- Comment #4 From Josh Sled 2007-01-16 06:13:26 0000 ------- 
There are problems using gnucash with slib 3a4

------- Comment #5 From Brandon Low 2007-01-17 03:16:49 0000 ------- 
Now that slib 3.1.4 is available in ~x86, I'm having this same problem with
gnucash.

gnucash-2.0.[12] should depend on ~slib-2.4.6 which depends itself on
guile-1.6.7.

"~slib-2.4.6"?  When/why did slib-2.4.6 become keyworded?

------- Comment #8 From Marijn Schouten 2007-01-17 14:54:00 0000 ------- 
I think you misunderstood, I meant

DEPEND="~slib-2.4.6"

not that that version is ~

------- Comment #9 From Marijn Schouten 2007-01-17 14:59:21 0000 ------- 
However slib-3.1.1 is being stabilized too (bug 161781). I forget whether this
works too so perhaps it could be <=slib-3.1.1.

------- Comment #10 From Fred Krogh 2007-01-17 16:04:05 0000 ------- 
With dev-scheme/slib-3.1.1 and dev-scheme/guile-1.6.7, app-office/gnucash-2.0.2
is working for me.  However it puts out lost of diagnostics like

...

I did.  Sorry about that; I didn't understand the '~' overloading for DEPEND.

Upstream has seen slib-3a1 work with gnucash-2.x and guile-1.6.7.  Debian, in
particular, has used this combination.

This is Bug#158673.

2.0.4 just added to portage, which fixes all this.
