You simply can't use --deep with package pinning, it doesn't work, since it appears --deep does all depends, and the kde-3.05a isn't anything more than a metapackage of runtime depends. If you open up the ebuild in the editor, kde is just a call for all the non-dev packages, making libs and base depends and therefore bypassing your pinning.
