Hi!
net-libs/wvstreams-4.6.1-r1 will not compile with gcc 4.7.0
I goggled a bit and found a patch here:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=667418

and it works for me. They say that it is included in latest sources, but the highest version in portage did not.

Perhaps you would like to include the patch mentioned in that page, quoting it here for your convenience:
---------

Description: Fix FTBFS with gcc-4.7
 Small header include change. This is borderlinde cosmetic, but still needed
 to prevent the FTBFS.
