I've not merged KDE4 since I decided it wasn't ready a few months ago, so 
won't touch that, however...

equery hasuse <flag> lists all packages that have that USE flag, whether 
it is turned on or not.  To see if a flag is actually turned on for an 
individual package, use equery uses <package>, or to see what it /will/ 
be merging with, use emerge --pretend --verbose.

So use equery hasuse to get a list of packages that have that use flag, 
then check them individually to see if it's turned on.
