Portage works as designed. Both packages provide a "melt" binary, so cannot be both installed at the same time.
Both packages install a /usr/bin/melt which we solved in bug #274671 with the useflag and block. So this is intentional. Unless you have a different solution, this is a "won't fix"... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 274671 ***
