Finally, Metacity now has an integrated compositing manager. The new compositing manager uses libcm and OpenGL and implements all of the staple compositing features like drop shadows, menu fades and "wobbly minimise".


from http://www.gnome.org/~davyd/gnome-2-14/

I think there's gnome 2.14 ebuilds @ http://breakmygentoo.org/

Use the gnome-experimental tree from http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Overlays. That is the one I use and it works nicely.

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively you may set the METACITY_CFLAGS and METACITY_LIBS environment variables
to avoid the need to call pkg-config.  See the pkg-config man page for
more details.

When I said it works, I meant gnome works.. I won't build it with the compacitor because it isn't recommended to use quite yet.

An 'emerge libcm' should solve your problem compiling metacity
