each ebuild can use multislotted depends, but it does not need it, the only 
reason gentoo support multislots is that portage will break one day, and if 
that python is breaked, one cant emerge anything, loose 

if you tell portage to let glib and mesalib use python3 its done

if you know gentoo more you will hate precompiled distros more :)
