Did an "emerge --sync" and "emerge --ask --deep --update --world".
When emerge got to x11-libs/gtk+-2.10.6, the following happened...

checking for cups-config... /usr/bin/cups-config
checking cairo-pdf.h usability... no
checking cairo-pdf.h presence... no
checking for cairo-pdf.h... no
configure: error:
*** Can't find cairo-pdf.h. You must build Cairo with the pdf
*** backend enabled.

  Probably because I start off USE with a "-*".  Should be an easy fix,
insert "x11-libs/cairo pdf" into /etc/portage/package.use and rebuild
Cairo, then proceed with the emerge... *BUT*...

[m3000][root][~] emerge -pv cairo

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R   ] x11-libs/cairo-1.2.4  USE="X png -directfb -doc -glitz
-svg (-pdf%)" 0 kB

  Oops... note the "(-pdf%)".  This option is simply not allowed for
Cairo on my system.  I threw in "--skipfirst" into the emerge command,
and it seems to be working so far.  But back to my main problem... how
do I reconcile gtk+ and Cairo?
