I do agree with that, portage probably need a rewrite/better
modularization anyway. There is/was a project called portage-ng () you
might want to have a look at. I did a little in that direction recently,
and it seems that there is not too many people working on it since
drobbins left, but you can contact Pieter (pvdabeel@gentoo.org). I might
get on that too at some point in the future too.

There is also Patrick Mclean (chutzpah@linuxfreak.ca) that has a nice
lab setup using Gentoo at McGill. It's a diskless system so might not be
to much what you are looking for, but as you probably want to dig before
getting to work, you should really see his setup. He did not released
anything yet, but we talked about starting a wiki for gentoo labs
sometime and have his setup released there.
