I ran into the same problem, but I'm sorry to say it was awhile ago
and I don't remember exactly how I fixed it. But I'd suggest doing an
emerge --sync, emerge --unmerge gnucash  and the same for guile, and
then emerge gnucash (which should pull in guile). I have a vague
recollection that the sync was crucial -- there may have been a
version skew issue that they fixed that you won't see unless you sync.
And, of course, before you do all this, add 'dev-scheme/guile
deprecated regex' to /etc/portage/package.use.
