        Yes:  http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15270

        Short answer:  If you don't *program* GNOME applications you can add 
"-doc" to your USE flags and get around the problem.  This removes 
(AFAIK) the building of extra documentation generally useful only to 
developers.
        There's also a link there to a fixup procedure for the system's handling 
of SGML, which works for some people (but didn't for me).
