Thank you both.  I must remember to search bugzilla before I post, but like 
others I thought if a package is released as stable, then dependent packages 
would have been tested as part of @preserved-rebuild at least.  Perhaps this 
box with no-multilib is an edge case, because other boxen I've updated did not 
have this problem.

The workaround I used is to symlink /usr/lib64/libgpgme-pthread.so to 
libgpgme.so as suggested in the bug report.  Masking the latest gpgme would 
also work, but then I'll be working against portage than with it.  Given that 
a lot of packages depend on gpgme and they are still in the tree as KDE-4, 
perhaps gpgme should not have been marked stable, or at least it could have 
been released with an enotice to advice users how to work around these bugs.
