yes it is! equery just told you so!

yes, the ebuild exists, but it's not installed! Therefore equery didn't
show it to you.

I think it just means gtk-doc-am wants a newer gtk-doc, so it's blocking
the one you have installed. You need to uninstall gtk-doc, and then you
can install a newer gtk-doc and gtk-doc-am.

Exactly, from gtk-doc-am's ebuild we get:
DEPEND="${RDEPEND}
!<=dev-utils/gtk-doc-1.10"
That seems gtk-doc-am can't be installed if gtk-doc is older than version
gtk-doc-1.0 and you seem to be working with gtk-doc-1.8-r2. As Iain
Buchanan said, uninstall gtk-doc and run everything, that should work.
