Yep. That information is hidden deep down in the "emerge" man page...
--verbose [ y | n ] (-v short option)
Tell emerge to run in verbose mode. Currently this flag causes
emerge to print out GNU info errors, if any, and to show the USE
flags that will be used for each package when pretending. The
following symbols are affixed to USE flags in order to indicate
their status:
Symbol Location Meaning
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- prefix not enabled (either disabled or removed)
* suffix transition to or from the enabled state
% suffix newly added or removed
() circumfix forced, masked, or removed
{} circumfix state is bound to FEATURES settings
