Well, then what our Portage devs think the intended behaviour should be is a 
bug. E.g. in the case the bug refers to, we rely on Portage building  
kdnssd-avahi after kdelibs (otherwise it simply would fail), but before any 
other ebuild that might need kdnssd-avahi. And I'm pretty sure nearly 
everyone using PDEPEND in his ebuilds relies on Portage building the PDEPEND 
not before the ebuild, which lists it.

The latter.
