I have tried.

Configuring search environment for revdep-rebuild

Checking reverse dependencies...

Packages containing binaries and libraries broken by a package update
will be emerged.

^[[31;01mrevdep-rebuild failed to emerge all packages^[[0m
^[[31;01myou have the following choices:^[[0m

- if emerge failed during the build, fix the problems and re-run
revdep-rebuild
    or
- use -X or --package-names as first argument (trys to rebuild package,
not exact
  ebuild)
    or
- set ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~<your platform>" and/or /etc/portage/package.unmask
  (and remove /root/.revdep-rebuild.5_order to be evaluated again)
    or
- modify the above emerge command and run it manually
    or
- compile or unmerge unsatisfied packages manually, remove temporary
files and
  try again (you can edit package/ebuild list first)

^[[32;01mTo remove temporary files, please run:^[[0m
rm /root/.revdep-rebuild*.?_*

the first several libraries are masked, so that seems to be a long and
tedious exercise to correct them, one at a time.

This is what I did that worked


emerge guile    (1.8.3)
	New version, probably made no difference
emerge slib     (3.1.5-r1)
	New version, probably made no difference
emerge libpcre  (7.6-r1)
	This seems to be the magic step that created
	'libguile-ltdl.so.*' and 'libqthreads.so.*'
emerge -C gnucash  (2.0.5)
	For some reason, I needed this step in order for the new version
	of gnucash to compile correctly.  It must have been looking for
	something from the 2.0.5 version.
emerge gnucash  (2.2.3)
	This worked.

I am not sure what to do about the revdep-build problems, I will work on
it later.  Thanks for the response!
