dev-php/PEAR-MDB2_Driver_sqlite-1.5.0_beta3 depends on dev-lang/php[sqlite], but >dev-lang/php-5.4 doesn't have a sqlite use flag.

Therefore, dev-php/PEAR-MDB2_Driver_sqlite-1.5.0_beta3 pulls in a previous version of PHP (5.3). That's not what is expected.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge dev-php/PEAR-MDB2_Driver_sqlite-1.5.0_beta3
Actual Results:  
dev-lang/php-5.3* is pulled in as a dependency

Expected Results:  
No additional dependencies are pulled in; php-5.4 is used.

php[sqlite] and php[sqlite3] provide two very different interfaces. Does MDB2 work with both of them?

As far as I can tell, MDB2 won't work with sqlite3, and webapps like roundcube are migrating away. Nothing we can do.
