revdep-rebuild *should*, having problem me too with it not rebuilding 
*all* what I need.

A rather awful workaround is to rebuild every package that has the mysql 
useflag. to generate a list try this oneliner:

emerge -epv --columns mysql \
| grep mysql | grep -v 'dev-db/mysql '\
| cut -c 17- \
| awk 'emerge --oneshot {print $1}' \
| awk '{print "emerge --oneshot --nodeps", $1}'

then adjust the list for your needs.

Sorry for the problems, I can setup a test environment on a public ip 
address (x86 running stable), following your instruction (I don't use 
vpopmail).

Then we can test everything there.
