No, it just takes it out of the world file and puts it back to what it really 
is - a dependant package that it pulled in and used if and only if it is 
needed.

You will not notice any difference in use, portage may well be in a position 
to automatically fix problems like this in the future, and one day you might 
find --depclean removing it when everything else using it is removed. What is 
exactly the behaviour you want.
