Well, this is the expected behavior of the gnome patch.  The idea behind the patch was that if you were running gnome, (hence USE=gnome) that gaim will use gnome's browser settings.  Therefore, to change the browser settings in gaim when USE=gnome, you would run gnome-default-applications-properties and change the browser there.

Note that the gaim team has added this functionality via a different method in their CVS.  I believe they just added a "gnome default" option to their Browser list.

Closing this.  Thanks wolf31o2.
