$ grep -r thumbnailers /var/portage/kde-base/*
/var/portage/kde-base/kdegraphics-meta/kdegraphics-meta-4.3.0.ebuild:   >=kde-
base/thumbnailers-${PV}:${SLOT}[kdeprefix=]
/var/portage/kde-base/kdegraphics-meta/kdegraphics-meta-4.3.1.ebuild:   >=kde-
base/thumbnailers-${PV}:${SLOT}[kdeprefix=]


So I'll bet that you have kdegraphics-meta-4.3.0 in world which won't pull in 
thumbnailers.

To verify: grep kde /var/lib/portage/world

And, you did check the contents of package.keywords and package.mask, right?
