The only way that you will be able to get around this is to comment out the >=media-gfx/gimp-1.3 line in /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask file. You can also try adding the line to /etc/portage/package.unmask file and see if it supercedes the one in /usr/portage/profiles. I am not sure how that is checked, so that might work for you as well.
