These were probably added to the world file after an "emerge -u wxPython" or such. Removing them should be fine if things still depend on them. After pruning your world file, I would suggest doing emerge -e before depclean. It should only rebuild what would be rebuilt after the depclean but would ensure that everything continues to work properly. Also, make sure to run with the -p option first!
