I've set up a fresh ~amd64 system (Intel Core2 Duo), and I need to use a 32bit application, namely the IBM Rational Service Architect (an eclipse based modeling tool). The same problem also appears with app-text/acroread-9.1.2, which is in the portage tree, so I'll use that as example here. When I start it up, all characters in the menu bar and the menus show up as squares. A screenshot can be seen at http://www.tsdh.de/~heimdall/acroread.png. When I start acroread, I get this output: % acroread (acroread:24591): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "murrine", (acroread:24591): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "murrine", (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: Error loading XPM image loader: Image type 'xpm' is not supported (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: Error loading XPM image loader: Image type 'xpm' is not supported (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: Error loading XPM image loader: Image type 'xpm' is not supported (acroread:24591): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (acroread:24591): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (acroread:24591): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (acroread:24591): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (acroread:24591): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (acroread:24591): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (acroread:24591): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_set_icon_list: assertion `GDK_IS_PIXBUF (pixbuf)' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_width: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_height: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_width: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_height: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_width: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_height: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: Error loading XPM image loader: Image type 'xpm' is not supported (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: Error loading XPM image loader: Image type 'xpm' is not supported (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **: Error loading XPM image loader: Image type 'xpm' is not supported (acroread:24591): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (acroread:24591): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (acroread:24591): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (acroread:24591): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (acroread:24591): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (acroread:24591): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (acroread:24591): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_set_icon_list: assertion `GDK_IS_PIXBUF (pixbuf)' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_width: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_height: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_width: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_height: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_width: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (acroread:24591): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_height: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (acroread:24591): Pango-WARNING **: No builtin or dynamically loaded modules were found.

Also, starting acroread with "linux32 /opt/Adobe/Reader9/bin/acroread" doesn't improve anything. I tried to change the gtk+ theme back to the standard raleigh theme, but except that the error message "Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "murrine"" went away, the result stays the same.

Have you tried with 20081109 ? (please see bug 254577)
Hi Pacho. I have upgraded all emul-linux packages to 20081109, but the problem still persists.
Maybe the difference is that you are using ~amd64 while I am with amd64 (stable) :-/
(In reply to comment #3) I tested this on two ~amd64 boxes and I can't reproduce. Perhaps its some kind of LOCALE setting problem?
For what it's worth, my locale is: % locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL= I guess that's pretty standard.
Any updates on that?
Seems that unmasking =app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-gtklibs-20081109 =app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-xlibs-20081109 =app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-baselibs-20081109 fixed the problem for me.
I'm having now exactly the same problem with emul-linux-x86-gtklibs-20091004_rc1, all the earlier versions have worked without problems... Should I continue here or make a new bugreport (because the version has changed)?
I have the same problem as in comment #8. gtklibs from 20081109 work fine but 20091004 gives problems. I get errors regarding gdk-pixbuf and pango as in comment #1 and no fonts as a result. It looks for /etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders instead of /etc/gtk-2.0/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf.loaders. And similar for /etc/pango/. While creating appropriate symlinks work, it is a very ugly hack.
Fixed in app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-gtklibs-20091226
