Gentoo uses a sandbox that doesn't allow writing to the root filesystem when building package. Since ldconfig tries to write to /etc/ld.so.cache this causes a sandbox violation and building/installing the package fails.
I wanted to discuss how to address this.
I don't know why the ldconfig option was added (there's no mention of the reason in the commit), but normally the package manager does these kinds of things. If it's not necessary maybe it can be removed?
If it is for some reason then it could become an option? Or it could become and option to disable it.

Currently
wscriptalways callsldconfigafter building. See https://github.com/monome/libmonome/blob/3be6a37c8e30a7cf6eae6c202b2951d21abc7c76/wscript#L237Gentoo uses a sandbox that doesn't allow writing to the root filesystem when building package. Since
