Not sure why, but for some reason running emerge @preserved-rebuild does not
seem to fix some preserved libs links:
!!! existing preserved libs:
>>> package: x11-libs/pango-1.34.1
* - /usr/lib/libpangox-1.0.so.0
* - /usr/lib/libpangox-1.0.so.0.3000.1
This is all caused by some hack I have in my local portage for app-
antivirus/avast4workstation-1.3.0-r2. No matter how many times I run
@preserved-rebuild the libs in question keep coming up:

Installed versions: 1.3.0-r2^m[?](09:41:23 15/12/13)
Homepage: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast-for-linux-workstation.html
Description: avast! Linux Home Edition
[1] /usr/local/portage
======================================================
Other than removing the ebuild and looking for another antivirus, is there
something I can do to clear this @repserved-rebuild loop?

Yes, that's to be expected. Avast is a binary, it's not built from
sources, so there's no link step involved that would link against the
new pango libs.
I'm not sure if it'll work, by try emerging x11-libs/pangox-compat. If
that doesn't help, then your only option is to downgrade your pango
version to the version that doesn't exhibit the problem and mask all
newer versions.

It's installed in /opt, does that mean this is a binary package? If so,
no amount of reinstalling it will cause it to be linked against a
different library version.

Most of the times, when some binary packages on my systems do cause
something like this, then I just unemerge the package that keeps
recompiling and emerge it again afterwards. This will cause the portage
to drop the library-references in question and add new ones.
So, this should do the trick:
emerge -C app-antivirus/avast4workstation
emerge -1 app-antivirus/avast4workstation

This will make the message from portage and the old library version go
away, yes. It will also cause the program that used the library
(/opt/avast4workstation/bin/avastgui in OP's case) crash when you try
to run it, due to the old library version not being installed.
The correct solution to this is to add the specific (old) version of the
library to the dependencies (in the ebuild) of the (binary) package that
uses it. This will prevent an upgrade that uninstalls the old library
version. Sometimes the maintainer of the library will add a slotted
version of it, so that non-binary users of it do not have to use the
outdated version.
If the binary package is not an ebuild, you can manually add the newer
library version to package.mask, or make sure that the slot for the
older version is installed if the library is slotted.
Better yet (in all cases), get a more recent version of the binary
package that is built against the newer version of the library.
Complain to the vendor if none is available :-)
The preserve-libs feature in portage is intended to let things keep on
working short-term for source-distributed packages. In that case, the
currently installed program is linked against the old library version,
and when the program is rebuilt (with @preserved-rebuild) it will be
linked against the newer version.

Thank you for a detailed explanation, which makes sense to me. You are right,
uninstalling, running @preserved-rebuild and reinstalling this package breaks
the avastgui because of the missing libpangox-1.0.so.0 library. Thankfully,
the command line function is unaffected.
I wouldn't want to keep old libraries around unnecessarily, so I may have to
chase the dev for this package and see if he's still interested to look after
it.
