Check the "emerge" manual for --emptytree:

--emptytree (-e)
Virtually tweaks the tree of installed packages to only
contain
glibc; this is great to use together with
--pretend. This
allows developers to get a complete overview of the
complete
dependency tree of a package, and it enables complete
trees to
be rebuilt using the latest libraries.

If I remeber right then there was a thread about this topic maybe 2 or three
month ago.

Without warranty:

edit world if you want it
edit USE if you want it
# AUTOCLEAN="no" emerge -e world
# emerge depclean
