Why does portage want to build this:

[ebuild   R    ] x11-apps/xmodmap-1.0.10::gentoo 0 KiB

given this, already installed:

/var/db/pkg/x11-apps/xmodmap-1.0.10/xmodmap-1.0.10.ebuild

and these on my binary server (which is apparently not working properly
for reasons I'm trying to track down):

     binpkgs/x11-apps/xmodmap-1.0.10.tbz2
     distfiles/xmodmap-1.0.10.tar.bz2

When I remove these options, it doesn't want to anymore:

    #  --changed-use \
    #  --changed-deps \
    #  --newuse \
    #  --backtrack=100 \
    #  --deep \

Which option was it, I wonder, which triggered the build, and would it
bring me anything?
My guess is that one of the USE flags changed.  Compare which USE flags is it currently installed with and which it wants for the reinstall.  It might even be that a USE flag changed in the ebuild, even if it won't actually change what gets installed. (--changed-use vs --new-use)

The options still used are:

emerge \
  --getbinpkg y \
  -v \
  --tree \
  --update \
  --noreplace \
  --verbose-conflicts \
  --keep-going \
  --with-bdeps=y \
