That's a side effect from the fix for this bug:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201045

The code was never written to preserve unmerge order, but now that
it's been tweaked to do so, it displays a bit differently in cases
like this. It would be possible to make it look like it used to in
cases when the order doesn't matter, but since it's only
superficial, it's not a really a high priority.

That's this bug:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198200

With <portage-2.2_pre the only solution is to add the versions that
you want to keep to the world file, like this:

emerge --noreplace =gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r8

After you do that, depclean shouldn't want to remove that one.
