This is weird. xfce-base/thunar-1.4.0 (the only available version) is stable; every one of its dependencies should be stable. You should not require to keyword any package. Can I see your USE variable in /etc/make.conf (or /etc/portage/make.conf, if you use the new recommended location)? Also, if you have it, your /etc/portage/package.use file or files? I have an old server running without nothing X-related, and portage allows me to merge thunar by just setting "X" and "gudev" to my USE flags. Also, your xfce-meta installation didn't pull thunar because you didn't set the (surprise) thunar USE flag. Before merging something, do a: emerge -pv xfce-meta You will see the possible USE flags, and which ones are set.
