  Do you have a backup dialup account like me?  That's why I have
pppconfig, which pulls in ppp.  Try "pretend depclean" and see what you
get.  E.g...

#############################################
[d531][waltdnes][~] emerge -pv --depclean ppp

Calculating dependencies... done!
  net-dialup/ppp-2.4.5-r1 pulled in by:
    net-dialup/pppconfig-2.3.17-r1
#############################################

  You might also want to try...

emerge -pv --depclean ppp pppconfig
