Depends on what eclasses the ebuild uses.

If you inherit autotools and hope that the implicit RDEPEND=DEPEND in the
ebuild happens, you'll be disappointed.

Apparently now (see https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152534) we
should add every atom that an ebuild depends on to (R)DEPEND.
Which is the right way?

In the bug above we're talking DEPEND, for which this is true: gtk was installed with a binpkg and those don't pull in their DEPENDs because the package is already built. For RDEPEND you can savely rely on implicit dependencies, in most cases at least.
