Are you using the monolithic or split ebuilds for kde?
That is, did you emerge kde or emerge kde-meta?
If you using the monolithic ebuilds, this binary will be provided by a 
different package.  If you'll locate the actual binary, you can find which 
package provides it with equery b /path/to/xrdb.  You might be able to 
recompile that package.
