/usr/lib/libXmu.so is provided by x11-base/xorg-x11. libxmu ebuild is for modular X.Org, which is masked.
there is the path of libXmu.so on my machine : /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so and the command that fails is : i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -pedantic -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wnested-externs -std=c89 -U__STRICT_ANSI__ -Wl,-O1 -L/usr/lib -o xscreensaver xscreensaver.o windows.o timers.o subprocs.o exec.o xset.o splash.o setuid.o stderr.o prefs.o dpms.o lock.o passwd.o passwd-pam.o passwd-pwent.o ../utils/fade.o ../utils/overlay.o ../utils/logo.o ../utils/yarandom.o ../utils/resources.o ../utils/usleep.o ../utils/visual.o -L/usr/lib -lXmu -lXt -lX11 -lXext -lpam -ldl -lcrypt saying : /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.6/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lXmu if making a symlink into /usr/lib, it fails again on Xt lib. fixing the -L/usr/lib in the makefile/ebuild may fix the problem? of course we could make all the symlinks into /usr/lib/ but ... sounds weird since all Xorg libs are located in /usr/X11R6/lib/
/usr/X11R6 should be a symlink: 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Oct 7 19:17 /usr/X11R6 -> ../usr

equery list xorg-x11, please

Again: this issue has nothing to do with modular X.
yeah I agree, but why don't we have a symlinked /usr/X11R6 ?
x11-base/xorg-x11-6.7.0-r1 is quite old. Please try to upgrade to current stable - that means x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r6. 6.7.0-r1 was removed from the tree at 29 Sep 2004.
Please upgrade to a supported release of xorg-x11 (i.e., anything currently in the tree), then reopen if it's still an issue.
