I attempted to emerge xvkbd and xbindkeys. Xaw3D was to be merged along with them as a requirement. The ebuild failed with "xmkmf" so I emerged imake. Then it bombed out with missing gccmakedep. After emerging that, Xaw3D built and merged properly.
Reopen with 'emerge -pv virtual/x11' and 'grep -Rni "virtual/x11" /etc/portage' output.

(In reply to comment #2) Yeah; the problem is - there are no missing dependencies. emerge -C virtual/x11 echo "virtual/x11" >> /etc/portage/package.mask echo "=x11-base/xorg-x11-6*" >> /etc/portage/package.mask emerge -uDpv world Now you should see what's pulling in virtual/x11-7.0 and breaks the dependencies for you.

wanted to note I had this problem today with the missing dependancies and I have virtual/x11-7.0-r1 I was doing an emerge -e system. also emerge -avuDN world didn't try to bring the dependancies either, but I'm not sure if they would. however when I found out it was imake that I was missing I was able to successfully grab it and it's dependancies successfully and build Xaw3d successfully.
Should be fixed by virtual/x11 7.0-r1.
