I get this too, also with gnome-base/gnome-applets-2.19.1 from gnome-experimental.
Does it still happen if you re-emerge gnome-doc-utils?
I had the same error here and re-merging of gnome-doc-utils solved it for me. $ emerge --info Portage 2.1.3.6 (default-linux/amd64/2006.1, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.6.1-r0, 2.6.22-gentoo-r1-mw x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.22-gentoo-r1-mw x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6400 @ 2.13GHz Gentoo Base System release 1.12.10 Timestamp of tree: Fri, 24 Aug 2007 04:50:01 +0000 distcc 2.18.3 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ccache version 2.4 [disabled] dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.33-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.4.4-r4, 2.5.1-r2 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r6 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r7 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.17.50.0.18 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.0 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.24 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.22-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/gconf /etc/php/apache2-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cgi-php5/ext-active/ /etc/php/cli-php5/ext-active/ /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c" CXXFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/pub/os/linux/gentoo" LANG="C" MAKEOPTS="-j2 -l 4.0" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages --filter=H_**/files/digest-*" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://ares/gentoo-portage" USE="X Xaw3d a52 aac aalib acpi alsa amd64 aoss bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts blender-game branding bzip2 cdparanoia cdr cli cracklib crypt css cups curl d dbus dedicated dga dia directfb divx dri dvb dvd dvdnav dvdr dvi editor emerald encode escreen expat fam fbcon ffmpeg firefox flac ftp gd gdbm gif gimpprint glut gnome gnutls gtk gtkhtml hal hddtemp iconv icq idn imagemagick imap ipv6 jabber john jpeg jpeg2k lame libcaca libnotify logrotate mad mbox midi mng mozdevelop mozilla mp3 mudflap mysql nautilus ncurses nfs nls no-htdocs nptl nptlonly nsplugin nvidia offensive ogg openal opengl openmp openssl oscar pam pcre pdf perl php png pop postfix postgres ppds python quicktime readline realmedia rtc ruby samba sdl server session skins spl sqlite ssl startup-notification svg tcpd tetex theora thunderbird tiff tools truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb userlocales vim vim-with-x visualization vorbis wmf wmp wxwindows x264 xanim xchattext xine xinerama xml xorg xpm xprint xsl xv xvid zlib" ALSA_CARDS="cmipci hda-intel" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse evdev" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS

After re-emerging gnome-doc-utils, gnome-applets compile fine, thanks. Anyway, i think python-updater should check more carefully about package dependencies, as I also had to re-emerge rhythmbox (and maybe i will need to re-emerge other packages in future) to get it to work with python-2.5, while it wasn't on python-updater list.
that probably means you need to run revdep-rebuild.
