That is handled by the block starting at line 212 in openrc-0.12.4.ebuild. I had to modify the file so portage wouldn't remove it. The push for the use flag was because people didn't think it was enough for me to put out a news item telling them that they should emerge netifrc if they wanted to continue using it once this version of OpenRC was installed.
