It's common for people get get confused like this by the "confmem"
behavior that's built into portage's merge process. You can use
- --noconfmem to disable it.

In newer versions of portage (those not marked stable yet),
uninstalling a package or downgrading it will automatically trigger
behavior like --noconfmem [1], so hopefully this will help to avoid
some confusion in the future.
