I looked at the configure script for gramps and discovered it was creating a 
python test for the gtk bindings.  dev-python/pygtk-2.14.1 was already 
installed, and re-emerging produced this:

 * Messages for package dev-python/pygtk-2.14.1:

 * Unable to establish /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/pygtk.py symlink
 * Unable to establish /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/pygtk.pth symlink

In gentoo forums, I found a discussion about pygobject and pygtk both needing 
to be re-emerged.  I did "emerge -1 -av pygobject pygtk" successfully and then 
the emerge for gramps is now proceeding past the point of earlier failure.
