As it turns out, this wasn't necessary. On running revdep-rebuild, a lot of files were looking for libpangocairo. Thinking that I'm so smart, I tried to emerge this, but of course, there was no such package. A google search discovered that libpangocairo is provided by pango-1.28.x. I only had 1.26.x on my system. 1.28.x was masked, but if fixed my package.keywords file, emerged pango-1.28.1 and that solved all of my problems - I could even do the remaining updates on my system which started with gtk+. Not sure exactly what was going on here, but I'm back and running and that's all I care about. revdep-rebuild has been cleared. Anyway, thanks for all the help.
