What was the source for your install?
Minimal, Universal, LiveCD, LiveDVD?? 2006.0? 2006.1?
something else? I'll try to duplicate your installand see if the missing
or wrong component will appear for me.
(something used by the gnome-doc-utils in compiling xslt
components is missing or wrong)

I used LiveCD 2006.1. Let me know if it works ;)

Just finished a successful install up to and including gnome.
At the end of this install, emerge --info produced an output that included the "not present" items from your initial emerge --info.(Items that you manually emerged such as glibc).

I used LiveCD 2006.1. At the boot option I used the default.
When it loaded a Gnome desktop I chose the Gentoo Linux Installer (GTK+). Then:
1.type: standard
2.network:default  --  misc: default
3.partitioning: selected a disk, clear partions, click recommended layout 4.network mounts: default
5.stage: stage3, grp install, dynamic
6.portage tree: default
7.make.conf: default
8.kernel: livecd kernel
9.bootloader: grub, install in mbr, select a drive
  extra kernel parameters-
10.time zone: pick one
11.networking: interface: eth0, configuration: dhcp
hostname etc: -as needed 12.daemons: default
13.extra packages: gnome and as desired; be generous
14.Startup servicse: as desired; be generous
15.other settings: {display manager:gdm, clock: local (cause i
dual boot windows),  Xsession: Gnome (cause I like it),
others: default}
16.users: as desired, ensure you do root password
17.review: install

This should give you a working install including gnome.
