You have to rebuild lablgtk before unison as you updated ocaml (at some point in the past :) and previously installed ocaml libraries are not compatible with the new compiler. 
Maybe you haven't noticed the message at the end of the ocaml build informing you to use the /usr/portage/dev-lang/ocaml/files/ocaml-rebuild.sh script to automatically rebuild ocaml libs ?

[Comment 2 Malte S. Stretz 2004-10-20 09:53:12 UTC]

"emerge (10 of 14) net-misc/unison-2.9.1-r1 to /" -- yeah, I probably didn't notice that message ;~)

Is there an ocaml.eclass?  If there's one, it should probably point to that script in case of an error.

Whatever:

That pretty much sucks.  Will try to resolve the dependencies per hand...
