in a case like this, i usually go the "big hammer" route and hit everything i
can at once:
# emerge --unmerge kde qt gnome xfree
# rm -r /usr/X11R6 /usr/kde <wherever gnome is>
# emerge /usr/portage/x11-base/xfree/xfree-4.2.1-r2.ebuild
# emerge kde gnome
not exactly the surgen's way to do it, but i've found it works for me.
