No
use.local.desc and use.desc are used to _describe_ use flags
use.local.desc is just an extensive individual package use flag listing
all USE flags are evaluated in the ebuild.
If you don't want to edit the ebuild you can do it manually the BOFH way
And since id like to update wget to 1.9.1-r3
I'll layout the step by step process on how I actually did it in my box here
instead of emerge wget or ebuild wget-1.9.1-r3.ebuild merge
# wget --version || head -n1
GNU Wget 1.9
# ebuild /usr/portage/net-misc/wget/wget-1.9.1-r3.ebuild fetch
# ebuild /usr/portage/net-misc/wget/wget-1.9.1-r3.ebuild unpack
# cd /var/tmp/portage/wget-1.9.1-r3/work/wget-1.9.1
# ./configure --with-ssl --sysconfdir=/etc/wget
# LDFLAGS="--static" CFLAGS="-march=athlon -fomit-frame-pointer -O -pipe" make
# touch /var/tmp/portage/wget-1.9.1-r3/.compiled
# ebuild /usr/portage/net-misc/wget/wget-1.9.1-r3.ebuild install
(files are actually in an install image /var/tmp/portage/wget-1.9.1-r3/image/)
# ebuild /usr/portage/net-misc/wget/wget-1.9.1-r3.ebuild qmerge
# wget --version || head -n1
GNU Wget 1.9.1
