Portage keeps certain file which help on this such as 
/var/db/pkg/<cat>/<name>/CFLAGS and USE.  Maybe they could be named on the 
ftp server to

	<name>.specification
	<name>.tar.gz

So that emerge download the .specification, validate the similarity and then 
propose or take it from the distribution system.  Basically the same as 
ccache ;-)
