Maybe start by showing what you're doing that's pulling KDE5/plasma?  With so many various configurations it's pretty much impossible to take a guess as to what's going on with your system.

example... if i wanna try to install konsole...

# emerge --ask konsole


 * IMPORTANT: 2 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news read to view new items.


 * IMPORTANT: 6 config files in '/etc/portage' need updating.
 * See the CONFIGURATION FILES section of the emerge
 * man page to learn how to update config files.

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

You would need to mask any version greater than the desired version.
 
Use equery to check available versions on your box
 

# equery l -po konsole
 * Searching for konsole ...
[-P-] [  ] kde-apps/konsole-4.14.3:4/4.14
[-P-] [  ] kde-apps/konsole-4.14.3-r1:4/4.14
[-P-] [  ] kde-apps/konsole-4.14.3-r2:4/4.14
[-P-] [  ] kde-apps/konsole-15.08.3:5

 
Mask anything greater than your desired version
 

 # echo ">kde-apps/konsole-4.14.3-r2" >> /etc/portage/package.mask

 
Check again with equery to make sure that there are no typos and the mask is successful.  There should be an "M" next to masked versions.
 

# equery l -po konsole
 * Searching for konsole ...
[-P-] [  ] kde-apps/konsole-4.14.3:4/4.14
[-P-] [  ] kde-apps/konsole-4.14.3-r1:4/4.14
[-P-] [  ] kde-apps/konsole-4.14.3-r2:4/4.14
[-P-] [M ] kde-apps/konsole-15.08.3:5

 
Now try to install konsole again using the "ask" flag.
 

 # emerge konsole -av

When you emerge konsole, just specify the correct slot for KDE4. e.g. "emerge -va konsole:4". That *should* ensure you're just pulling in KDE4/QT4 stuff. Because if you don't specify a slot, it'll automatically prefer the higher version number which is of course going to be what's in slot 5.
