x11 does not maintain gtkDPS.
It also happens on my AMD64 when I try to re-emerge it. However, in the past I was able to emerge the very same version now is failing: --- These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild R ] x11-libs/gtkDPS-0.3.4 +nls 0 kB --- and then it does not pass the config phase, moaning about 'x86_64-pc' not recognized.

It seems that when vapier cleaned up the ebuild (see CVS for details), they also removed the call to gnuconfig_update that was formerly at the top of src_compile(). This is what has caused the ebuild to break on amd64 and alpha (although it seems alpha hasn't been reported yet). Is there a reason why that line was removed? I've fixed it myself in my overlay here, and it seems to work perfectly, but that's only one environment. Was gnuconfig_update breaking something, or was it just a mistake?
Created attachment 77279 [details, diff] patch for gtkDPS-0.3.4.ebuild Whith the above patch, it merges correctly. Please consider correcting the package.
