Here's a stab at pre10...
The order of application is the order of explanation:

globals.diff - remove most globals
main_emerge.diff - add __main__ section
emergelint.diff - remove some obvious lint issues (unused/non-existent vars)
emergepychecker.diff - remove unused (and repeated) imports

feedback is welcome.
