It will emerge package with the USE-flags defined in make.conf (overrided by /etc/portage/package.use, if defined). If you haven't changed them since the original emerge, they'll still be the same.

If you are worried about having changed the USE flags since you installed, the equery program is excellent for finding what USE flags the package was initially emerged with. (equery is part of the gentoolkit package)
equery uses <package-spec>
The output shows you + and - signs in two columns, one for updates and one for installs.
