Okay, thank you. I'm sure that's what I was looking for.
The -u (--update) hadn't ever struck me because it seemed like the
default ;-)
--changed-use seems a bit like what the Germans call "Zweckentfremdung":
using something for a purpose it's not meant for (like a chef's knife
for a screwdriver) ;-)
--new-use isn't on my man page

Yes, if you use "emerge pkg", because that's what you have told it to do.
If you add -u it will only rebuild if there is an update. Similarly with
--new-use and --changed-use. See man emerge for more detail.
