The closest forum post to this problem is here:
https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-8694092.html?sid=c54c29e4f9fdfd8f28f90f5130e874b9

Quick backstory: I have never used wayland, nor toggled any USE flags for it. It has always been "-wayland".
During the 17.1->23.0 profile transition, the system is required to be rebuilt with emerge -e world.
I attempted to shortcut this using binary packages as best as possible, ignoring some personal things I don't want touched (beyond the scope of this posting).

Code:
# emerge --getbinpkg -e world --exclude=grub --exclude=grub2 --exclude=sdlmame --exclude=vanilla-sources --exclude=xanim --exclude=radeon-ucode --exclude=gnome-icon-theme --exclude=sys-fs/udev


And the following each failed to compile with an error about missing "gdk_wayland_display_get_type"

Code:
xfce-base/garcon-4.18.2
x11-terms/xfce4-terminal-1.1.3
app-cdr/xfburn-0.7.0
xfce-base/xfce4-session-4.18.3-r1
xfce-base/xfce4-settings-4.18.4
xfce-base/xfce4-panel-4.18.6
xfce-base/thunar-4.18.10


So I continued via
Code:
#emerge --resume --skipfirst

until I got everything else completed. After which:

1. revdep-rebuild/revdep-rebuild.sh does not resolve the problem.
2. re-emerging gtk+ from source does not solve the problem.
3. re-emerging libxfce4ui from source (i.e. without --getbinpkg) does solve the problem.
After which
Code:
# emerge -1  garcon xfce4-terminal xfburn xfce4-session xfce4-settings xfce4-panel thunar

works fine.

My only conclusion is that the libxfce4ui binary package must have a hidden dependency on wayland even though it does not show as such when running
Code:
# emerge -pv1 libxfce4ui

I can confirm on my system that
Code:
# emerge --getbinpkg -pv1 libxfce4ui

does indeed bring in a binary package.

I ran into this problem on 2 gentoo boxes.

Because I just yesterday created a topic for that and other issues and immediately got a respond, I'll just post here that this seems to be a known bug.
