Well, it doesn't actually 'solve' the original question, but I did figure out why superkaramba kept showing up.
"emerge -Davut world" revealed several plugins related to karamba. So unmerging ALL of them, finally made the block go away. The obnoxious part was that NOT ALL OF THEM showed up in the list each time. I had to keep issuing that command, unmerge the one or two that showed up, repeat cycle until they were all gone (and there were like 10 all together). Lame. Sounds like a short-coming of emerge/portage and dependencies. Anyways, hope this helps the next guy/gal.
