I need to update my USE flags and rebuild gcc with gcj support.

So, I do. I added gcj to my global make.conf and ran the emerge, and gcc was
rebuilt.

Installing (1 of 2) sys-devel/gcc-4.3.4

But now pdftk fails to build because there's no gcj command.

I'm confused.

It's using the old version of gcc, because you haven't told it to use the new version.

The output you posted specifically told you to run:

     gcc-config i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.3.4

     source /etc/profile

Stroller.
