Sure it will.  When the version of libc you have installed is removed 
from the portage tree you'll get bumped to the most recent version 
(stable/testing as appropriate).

Works fine for me.  I generally don't care if I'm running an older 
version of libc.  If something requires a particular version it will 
have a dependency and will pull it in.
