I did an emerge -e world after upgrading to sys-libs/glibc-2.25-r7. One of the two packages failed to build was sys-block/gparted-0.27.0.

=sys-block/gparted-0.28.1
=sys-block/gparted-0.29.0
build an run fine on my setup.

Yes, 0.29.0 has this fixed and is currently being stabilized.

The important part is including <sys/sysmacros.h> that was missing from 0.27.0.
