euses does not provide an euse command, it only provides euses:
$ equery -C f -f cmd euses
/usr/bin/euses
gentoolkit does provide an euse command:
$ e-file -c never euse

I assume, due to the provided arguments (`-p` and `-E`) that the bug concerns
euse, and the reporter on BugZilla made a mistake due to the strangely named
packages. Thus, my comment about "obscure quirks" is invalid in this particular
case, however my remarks regarding the peculiar reliance on $PORTDIR remain.
