This is a non-fatal problem, but slightly disturbing. >>> emerge (2 of 3) gnome-base/libghttp-1.0.9-r4 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) libghttp-1.0.9.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking libghttp-1.0.9.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/libghttp-1.0.9-r4/work * Applying libghttp-1.0.9-fixlocale.patch...

It's just elibtoolize checking if it needs to patch before it runs libtoolize. It's not a libghttp specific warning, it's an elibtoolize one, and it's just that, a warning.
You might want to consider removing the message "Please verify that it is not needed." from elibtoolize, then. Or adding some comment that indicates it can be ignored - there is little point outputting a message to a user telling them to verify something if that is just a waste of time.
