Just an aside: I emerged gvim with USE='+gtk +gtk2', and all fonts were broken. Just opening the font-choosing dialog and clicking OK would set it to a very-widely-spaced sans. Recompiling without gtk got me a gvim that could at least see the X fonts (none of the cute truetype stuff), but luckily it's the X fonts I *need* for coding.
The 2nd gvim had a totally different font-choosing dialogue, more in line with xfontsel's options.
$ cat /usr/portage/app-editors/gvim/gvim-6.2-r5.ebuild ... DEPEND="${DEPEND} ~app-editors/vim-core-${PV} virtual/x11 gtk? ( gtk2? ( >=x11-libs/gtk+-2.1 virtual/xft ) ) : ( gnome? ( gnome-base/gnome-libs ) : ( gtk? ( =x11-libs/gtk+-1.2* ) : ( motif? ( x11-libs/openmotif ) ) ) )"
This is fairly easy to read if you run `man 5 ebuild` & skip to the section titled "Dynamic DEPENDs", however I can't immediately see that the ebuild influences --configure options - my best guess is that the gvim configure itself detects which libraries are installed on the system & takes advantage of those it finds. In which case... did you unmerge gtk or remerge gtk2 before recompiling gvim..?
