According to man portage:


       --getbinpkg (-g)
              Using  the  server  and  location  defined  in PORTAGE_BINHOST
(see make.conf(5)), portage will download the
              information from each binary package found and it will use that
information to  help  build  the  dependency
              list.  This option implies -k.  (Use -gK for binary-only merging.)

       --getbinpkgonly (-G)
              This  option  is  identical  to -g, as above, except it will not
use ANY information from the local machine.
              All binaries will be downloaded from the remote server without
consulting packages  existing  in  the  local
              packages directory.


Ok, so what is diference? -g will fetch ALL packages in PORTAGE_BINHOST and use
them to construct the deps and the other......
