I don't think any part of the GNOME 3.x stack is masked anymore, but
it is still unstable. GNOME 3 is completely supported in Gentoo: I'm
running GNOME 3.2, and everything works without a hitch. But, if you
are running stable, and you are not used to fiddle in /etc/portage to
unmask or keyword packages, I would recommend to wait for it to be
stabilized. I don't think it will take that much longer.

Regards.
