That's because your/etc/portage/package.use file is messed up. You can
only have one entry for a package, otherwise the previous entries are
overridden by the last one.
An alternative, when a ./configure option is not covered by USE flags is
to put in in the EXTRA_ECONF variable, although this won't work with
every ebuild.
EXTRA_ECONF="--enable-blah" emerge foo/bar
