 !!! Note that circular dependencies can often be avoided by
 temporarily !!! disabling USE flags that trigger optional
 dependencies.

Two approaches occur to me:

The circular dependencies are found during the --deep check.  You
_could_ start with emerge --update world then do emerge --update
--deep world.  The first emerge would do part of the work and the
second would (I think, but am not sure) dig deeper and find
dependencies.  Finally you could do an emerge --deep --newuse world
to apply your new use flags.

Alternately you could take the dependency list and create a shell
script that would emerge them one by one.

HTH,
