The app crashes when I try to start it with this message displayed in the console: http://pastebin.ca/703439. I also tried to start it with the tk use flag switched on, but I do not receive any error message and it crashes after the startup screen showed up and I selected display resolution and hit the start button. Now error message is displayed then.

What resolution/depth is your X session running? If its 24bpp can you make it 16? Are you using composite? If so, can you try it with that off? Can you also please post your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file? Thanks.
Don't refer to pastebins in bugs, please. Makes bugs useless in days.
I found the problem. Koules is depending on the xlib library. After I installed this, it works. Does anybody know how to add this to the ebuild, because it did not automatically pull it in? I had to add xlib by hand. I also recognized that xemacs is installed with the xlib library, does this need to be or can I only install the xlib library by itself?
no, that's not the problem. It doesn't have anything to do with app-xemacs/xlib. You just needed to redo your font cache to find the specific font that xkoules uses.
