no it doesn't. With a fresh tree:

khamul mysql-workbench # grep cairo *ebuild
mysql-workbench-6.3.3.ebuild:           >=x11-libs/cairo-1.5.12[glib,svg]
mysql-workbench-6.3.4-r1.ebuild:
>=x11-libs/cairo-1.5.12[glib,svg]
mysql-workbench-6.3.4-r2.ebuild:
>=x11-libs/cairo-1.5.12[glib,svg]
mysql-workbench-6.3.4.ebuild:           >=x11-libs/cairo-1.5.12[glib,svg]
# grep 9999 *ebuild
#


Are you using an overlay that provides someone's latest greatest
mysql-workbench?

This is what the tree has right now, what does your machine say?

# eix mysql-workbench
* dev-db/mysql-workbench
     Available versions:  6.3.3 (~)6.3.4 6.3.4-r1 (~)6.3.4-r2 {debug doc

     Description:         MySQL Workbench
