Comment(by djrumbold@…):

 Well it does work.

 I've manually patched py27-gobject, babl, gegl, and gimp2 using bits of
 information from the suggested patch file and gimp2 does build and run.
 It's been a couple of weeks since I sorted it all out but I recall a few
 of the patches not working directly, so I ended up edited Portfiles
 manually based on what the patches were trying to accomplish. I also built
 gimp2 without the help browser, and I don't use it enough to know about
 plugin support, but I've used it for some basic image editing and it ran
 smoothly. I'm sorry I don't know enough about what I did to attach new
 patch files or submit updates/fixes, but if you're willing to hack around
 for a bit you'll get there :-) Perhaps an issue like this would gain more
 ground if the supporting packages (babl, gegl) had their own update
 requests?
