libsexy is deprecated and all packages depending on this should be chased down and killed with fire. There's not a lot as can be seen at: http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/misc/rindex/x11-libs/libsexy or maybe we could patch the pkgconfig file :)
As much as I'd like to say "let's kill it", it's better to patch the makefile for now if we can .
All reverse dependencies checked, looks like major problem is with xchat-gnome, others (apart of vmware stuff confirmation) have a known fix
