That's IUSE, not USE. USE flags are not touched (at least on
non-hardened systems), so the change is only picked up by emerge if you
use the --new-use option.

If you're positively sure that a package's USE flags did not change
since when it was last compiled, you can avoid recompiling by adding (or
removing) the "hardened" flag in /var/db/pkg/<category>/<package>/IUSE.
