I suspect the OP was asking in which order they are read. It could be an
issue in the case that you have different entries that match the
same package in two files. In this case, how would portage handle it? 

With the single file, at least i the case of package.use, portage took
the last entry. It would be better if it gave a warning instead, this
sort of thing is rarely intended.
