I notice that there is a ppp useflag.  Do you have it set?  I've found
that sometimes (for random values of sometimes) I need to do more than
just remove a useflag before portage will pay attention -- I may have to
use a "-ppp" (for example) to get portage to take notice and actually
rebuild packages that use the useflag.  No idea why, but I usually try
it just for fun.  Sometimes it's fun, sometimes it's not ;)
