No, it's there.  Even KDE and GNOME are there.
The Handbook
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/2004.3/handbook-x86.xml?full=1
states:

  "The GRP consists of all packages required to have a fully functional
   Gentoo installation. They are not just the ones you need to have a
   base    installation up to speed in no time, but all lengthier builds
   (such as KDE, xorg-x11, GNOME, OpenOffice, Mozilla, ...) are available
   as GRP packages too."

I tried "emerge --usepkg kde" (as suggested in the Handbook), too.
Didn't work.  Same as with icewm and all the other packages.  It's all
there, but it won't install
