Try rebuilding gtk+, it'll probably solve this issue.
I'd have a better suggestion - don't mix unstable gtk+ with stable cairo (same for the rest of your Gnome stuff).
yelp deps on gtk+-2.10, which checks if you have compiled cairo with pdf and X use flags. What version of gtk+ did you have installed? You should not have been able to emerge yelp without compiling gtk+-2.10.x which should have failed when checking for cairo compiled with X and pdf use flags.
Today I did a emerge --sync and the newer cairo is now being pulled in. According to the gtk+-2.10.6 ebuild (which is the version i am using) it should have pulled in >=x11-libs/cairo-1.2.0 which it for some reason didn't. Perhaps this bug is due to some local problem at my computer. Everything appears to be working now. I'm quite new to bugzilla, should i mark this as INVALID or is that a task for someone else?
marking wfm per reporters comments.
