Hi,

    Have you tried it ?

                    posix. Please choose another thread implementation or
                    provide information on your thread implementation.
                    You can also run 'configure --disable-threads'
                    to compile without thread support.

    !!! econf failed
    !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.

The relevant line of /var/tmp/portage/glib-2.6.5/work/glib-2.6.5/config.log:
 $ ./configure --prefix=/usr --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share
 --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --with-threads=posix --disable-static --enable-gtk-doc

It seems that "nptl" is not being taken into account. Is this normal for
glib? If so, what can I do to provide the missing libraries?

(I know my system is somewhat broken, I'm just trying to fix it be
emerging some packages I suppose might be relevant...)
