Because sys-fs/udisks:2 depends on it.

It's NOT trying to install gnome, the package is gnome-common with this
description:

     Description:         Common files for development of Gnome packages

The list of installed files are:

$ equery files gnome-common
 * Searching for gnome-common ...
 * Contents of gnome-base/gnome-common-3.18.0-r1:
/usr
/usr/bin
/usr/bin/gnome-autogen.sh
/usr/share
/usr/share/aclocal
/usr/share/aclocal/gnome-code-coverage.m4
/usr/share/aclocal/gnome-common.m4
/usr/share/aclocal/gnome-compiler-flags.m4
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/gnome-common-3.18.0-r1
/usr/share/doc/gnome-common-3.18.0-r1/ChangeLog
/usr/share/doc/gnome-common-3.18.0-r1/README

All they are is 4 small .m4 files to do useful stuff to let packages
build, very much like a few needed includes. They just happen to be
generically useful and just happen to be written by someone in the Gnome
team, and just happen to have names starting with this sequence of
letters: gee enn oh emm ee
