As of now you can specify a local repository to use for local ebuilds.
To do so you need to define PORTDIR_OVERLAY= in your make config.
Define it to be the directory to hold the local rep.  Mine is:

PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage"

also make sure it's layed out like the normal repository with the
categorized directories.  It will not be replaced when doing an rsync.
