As per summary, even though it's not a package of mine I'm handling this
on behalf of the QA team.

>From bug #273872:

- the X USE flags, if disabled, will cause the econf to fail (broken
configure.ac);
- the gtk USE flag actually patches out gtk support; 
- it still uses gtk 1.2, have fun!;
- it does not depend on the x11-proto packages for the proper includes;
- the latest upstream version 2.0.1 was added in 2002, two revisions later the
code is likely bad;
- it ignores CFLAGS set at compile, it pre-strips files;
- it provides an old modutils configuration file...

Will remove from tree on August 12th if nobody steps in to fix all these issues.
