I bumped the PKGBUILD for chromium to 52.0.2743.116 and it builds without error, the problem is that running it produces an "Aw snap" error and is pretty useless for web browsing. Partial stack trace:

Bartłomiej the Arch co-maintainer has confirmed this as well so I opened this report upstream. I'm wondering if there is a patch in the gentoo ebuild that might fix this behavior, but I am unfamiliar with the ebuilds. Do we have anyone who is fluent in ebuild and PKGBUILD formats who can comment?
EDIT: I also see that Fedora has rpms for this version available but again, I am not savvy enough with their packaging system to inspect what they're doing to get it functional.

ebuilds aren't really that different from PKGBUILDs. Look at src_prepare() in the ebuild. There are lines starting with 'epatch' following with the patch file that will be applied. The actual patch files are located in files/ directory.
Build options are set further down in src_configure(). It's also possible that the ebuild disables something, that is enabled in our PKGBUILDs and causing the crash.
To check the patches in Fedora .rpm, download the source rpm chromium-52.0.2743.116-1.fc26.src.rpm, and check the chromium.spec file inside that archive. In it, you'll see lines starting with Patch#, following with the individual patch that will be applied. Build options are again configured further down on that same file.

Thanks to Bartlomiej for finding the solution: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1361157
