emerge gconf gives the attached log 
gconftool-1 does not exist. gconftool-2 does.

emerge gconf

can you please do 
ls -al /usr/bin/gconftool* 

The script looks like this:

        if [ -x /usr/bin/gconftool-1 ]
        then
                /usr/bin/gconftool-1 --shutdown
        fi

So it -shouldnt- execute on your machine if the file doesn't exist. 
what comes to my mind is that its a trailing symlink or something like that...

okay, it was a typo'd (cut-n-paste perhaps?) gconftool-1 inside the gconftool-2
test there. fixed and commited. 

emerge --clean rsync and try again
