Anyways, it turned out to be something completely different. Whilst doing additional Google searching, I stumbled across "Foolproof Gentoo World Update Build Order" at http://foxpa.ws/tag/package-keywords/ and it was proof against this fool, too . My problem was that the Gentoo install snapshot put in gcc-4.3.4, and "emerge --update world" pulled in gcc-4.4.3-r2. So far, so good. But after the first build, I forgot to gcc-config over to 4.4.3-r2 ... dohhhhhhh. Anyhow, after switching over, rebuilding gcc-4.4.3-r2, exiting, logging back in, unmerging gcc-4.3.4, and rebuilding glibc, I successfully emerged system and world. I'm now emerging xorg-x11. Why on earth will xorg-x11 *NOT* build if I mask out various arabic, cyrillic, ethiopic, and jis fonts?
