Please consider to remove app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-gtkmmlibs from main-tree.
It seems to be that there is no single package in the main tree which depends on this emul package, thus i'm suggesting to remove it from main tree.

Though, there could be packages in overlays which need this emul package, but then i think it's better to move this package in this particular overlay too...

Zugaina sez there's one game that needs it.

This was added due a specific request in bug 298719 and, since emul sets are near this end and keeping this adds no overhead, I think we can leave them a bit more (but we don't needing to provide 32 bits native multilib support for their included packages before removing this with the rest of emul packages)
