I had not noticed this until this week and have since tested this out on a default cart. If the settings Products status in Catalog when out of stock should be set to is 0 and allow checkout is false, the product is supposed to deactivate and disappear.
In 1.5.4, it does not deactivate. I had a customer telling me that her products were turning back on and now I see that she is actually correct in some ways. You can no longer deactivate products by letting the quantity zero out.
I didn't see anything about this on the forum. Forgive me if I missed it.
