Something to note. I'm using -nls and I see it's looking for /intl/libgettext.h. Maybe there is a problem with using gconf -nls?
I have the same problem, also with -nls. I looked at the gconf-1.0.9.ebuild, and compared it with the ebuild for 1.0.8 It seems to me there is something missing. My guess is you heve to edit it to display: (actually copy-paste from the 1.0.8 ebuild) use nls \ || myconf="--disable-nls" \ && mkdir intl \ && touch intl/libgettext.h I'll try it, and post the edited ebuild if it works for me.
obviosly I'm wrong... the ebuild from 1.0.8 uses configure, while the 1.0.9 ebuild uses econf... I'm not sure how they work exactly, but use-flags are obviously used a bit different... a quick fix would be to use configure, but I'm sure there are enough reasons not to use it. I'll look into it a bit more.
Ok, I know the reasons... the problem is actually simple, configure always expects ./intl/libgettext.h to exist. The original ebuild checks if the use-flag is set, and only then creates the file. I edited it so it will always create the file (due to some logic, the 1.0.8 ebuild did the same), and then just use econf. I have no idea how to create a patch, so I'll just attach the ebuild.

alright, that should be fixed now. thanks for all your input.
