Alternatively, you may set the environment variables gobby_CFLAGS and gobby_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. !!!

Thanks for bringing this up. Altough current policy does not include fixing stuff not related to packages in portage this is a simple one that will probably help in the future. Fixed in portage should propagate to rsync mirrors in an hour or so.
Thanks. As far as I know gtksourceview2 is not yet API stable, so there might still be compilation failures popping up because of this.
