Suddenly something started forcing -systemd USE flag on polkit. Any hints how to find out what is it?

Code:
[ebuild  N     ] sys-auth/consolekit-0.4.5_p20120320-r1  USE="acl pam policykit -debug -doc (-selinux) {-test}" 101 kB
[ebuild   R    ] sys-auth/pambase-20120417-r1  USE="consolekit* cracklib gnome-keyring sha512 systemd -debug -minimal -mktemp -pam_krb5 -pam_ssh -passwdqc (-selinux)" 0 kB
[ebuild   R    ] sys-auth/polkit-0.107-r1  USE="gtk introspection nls pam -examples -kde (-selinux) (-systemd*)" 0 kB

If it is masked like this, then it is usually the profile masking it.

Why would it masked only this package? Also where would it be masked (I read use.mask of profile, profile parents etc. before posting on forum)?

Seems you were not thorough enough - see /usr/portage/profiles/base/package.use.mask.

I'm using sys-apps/portage-2.2.0-alpha149_p13.
After several trial and error, I found that I needed to use the "double-negative" technique. Specifically:

file etc/portage/profile/use.mask:
-systemd


Portage didn't like these filenames:
    /etc/portage/use.mask
    /etc/portage/package.use.mask

which I first tried.
