Well, there are some problems, which I managed to fix, but it required
some fiddling with the source code, and manually stepping through the ebuild
stages. I'll mention what I did, and leave it to someone more knowledgeable
about ebuilds to fix this.
The first error is a compile error in ../sys/unix/unixres.c, where
it can't find RTLD_NEXT. The problem is an incorrect #define before
#including <dlfcn.h>. The context diff to patch this is:

Actually, deleting the _GNU_SOURCE line will probably not affect things
either; the problem is that the RTLD_* defines aren't done unless __USE_GNU
is defined. I guess this is a glibc version-dependant problem.
The second error is an error on linking, if you have Gnome enabled.
The problem here is that the file tile.o is included for both the X11 port
and the Gnome port of nethack; including a file twice confuses the linker.
So, just remove the second copy of tile.o. (Removing the Gnome copy means
that it will work for both with and without Gnome being enabled, unless
you can find a reasonable setup with Gnome enabled but _not_ X.)

With both of those patches done, I managed to compile nethack with all the
different ports enabled.
