My situation seems to be a little more difficult and I would
appreciate some advice/help.

I, like others, hit the expat problem and as directed did

       revdep-rebuild -X --library libexpat.so.0

gettext failed to compile since emacs could not be run (libexpat
problem).  This I fixed by emerging gettext with USE='-emacs'.

But now

   USE='-emacs' revdep-rebuild -X --library libexpat.so.0

fails.

It attempts to emerge x11-libs/gtk+-2.10.13 but that needs pango

    checking Pango flags... -DPNG_NO_MMX_CODE -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 
-I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/cairo 
-I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng12   -lpangocairo-1.0 -lpango-1.0 
-lcairo -lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -ldl -lglib-2.0  
    configure: error:
    *** Can't link to Pango. Pango is required to build
    *** GTK+. For more information see http://www.pango.org

Pango fails to emerge with the expat problem 
(/mnt/a/portage/tmp/portage/x11-libs/pango-1.16.4/work/pango-1.16.4/pango/.libs/lt-pango-querymodules:
 error while loading shared libraries: libexpat.so.0: cannot open shared object 
file: No such file or directory)

Thanks in advance for any help.
