I followed the instructions covered in the Translation section as suggested
by Johannes, I can now complete the autogen and configure steps but have the
following problem with make:

make[3]: Entering directory `/root/gnucash/src/pixmaps'
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/gnucash/src/pixmaps'
Making all in core-utils
make[3]: Entering directory `/root/gnucash/src/core-utils'
FLAVOR=gnome /usr/bin/guile -c \
          "(set! %load-path (cons \"/usr/share/guile\" %load-path)) \
           (primitive-load \"./gw-core-utils-spec.scm\") \
           (gw:generate-wrapset \"gw-core-utils\")"
ERROR: no code for module (g-wrap)
make[3]: *** [gw-core-utils.scm] Error 2
make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/gnucash/src/core-utils'
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/gnucash/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/gnucash'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Somewhere I found a reference to the fact that the 1.9 g-wrap stream is a
pre-req for Gnucash2, it isn't in the gentoo packages list so I just pulled
down the tar from the web and installed it in /usr/share/guile/g-wrap (after
un-emerging the 1.3.4 version I had). Still doesn't seem to have solved the
problem

In case you are wondering why my build is under /root, I'm running a colinux
instance on my laptop, the home desktops all have ubuntu and couldn't get
all the "dev" pre-reqs to even complete the autogen step.

I'm going to keep rooting around (pun intended I suppose), but any pointers
are appreciated...
