emerge -aDvut will show the dependency tree which should tell you which
package requires virtual/x11-7.0-r2. Once you have narrowed down which
package requires it to be installed you can deal with it from there.
Instead of going unstable with your entire system you can add the offending
package to /etc/portage/package.keywords for instance. If it's a package
you know you don't need you could also remove it. HTH

Greg
