It's all part of the "love the sinner, hate the sin" bullshit mantra.
As far as I can tell, the Pope has just told a gay person that it's fine "to be gay", i.e. "it's fine to feel sexual attraction to the same sex". I wonder what he thinks about actually following that attraction, because accepting gay people and accepting gay relationships are different things.
The Dalai Lama has a similar hat trick to this too. When he got called out for being against homosexuality he responded that it's only wrong if you are a Buddhist trying to be a good buddhist. Uhhhh, well when you are also saying being a good Buddhist is the way to go, put that together.
