I had that with qemu. It reduced me to tears...

Lucky for skype I think it will be easier as you don't build skype:

emerge gcc-4.something
set gcc-3 to the system compiler
make sure gcc-3 libs are earlier in LD_LIBRARY_PATH than gcc-4
run skype with
   LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.1 skype
