Mystery solved.  The line above does indeed work in that an update world
with --newuse does reinstall apps without the networkmanager USE flag.

I was testing the line above with

  emerge --depclean networkmanager

and that is the wrong test.  It is only after I do the update world so
that the -networkmanager USE takes affect, that I can hope to for the
--depclean to take affect.

thanks to all.
