Hello,
I don't know if this could help you, but I have recently discover pdftk.
My gcc version was 4.4.3-r2 on amd64 and when I try to emerge pdftk, it
tell me to add gcj USE flag to gcc, so you could try to re-emerge gcc with
gcj USE flag enabled.
After that everything compiles fine in my case.

Hope this help (and sorry for my poor english speaking)

As P. Webb, said, for the trouble with pdftk, search / file a bug at
b.g.o.

As for alternatives, pdfjam fits my needs...

Have you filed a bug ?  What is its number ?

 Although I like the Pdftk I'm looking for a replacement,
 as Pdftk is no more maintained (last release November 28, 2006). 

I too find Pdftk useful, so please tell us more re your problem.
