i dont know about emerge -- but it is unclear here that there was
problems opening png images up.

if there is only a problem saving them, perhaps it is a permission
problem.  if there is a problem both opening and saving pngs, then there
might be something wrong with your png libraries.

is it possible to just build it (even once as a test) without "emerge"?
meaning, run through the basic make tools without the aid of the package
handler?  then it would be easier to determine if it is gimp or your
distribution.
