Here's the build log

Interestingly, "equery k slib" reports the following:

[ Checking dev-scheme/slib-3.1.1-r1 ]
!!! /usr/share/guile/slib does not point to /usr/share/slib
 * 174 out of 175 files good

Re-emerging slib doesn't fix that problem, and I'm not even sure it's affecting GnuCash's build.  However, running "emerge -av1 slib guile g-wrap" does allow GnuCash to build.

Sorry I can't narrow it down any further to which package was a problem.

After running that "emerge -av1 slib guile g-wrap", I was then able to successfully build gnucash.  Thanks!
