I'm not sure using NFS special permissions.  But I would just create two different mount points.  One for the portage tree and make that read-only, and then another for the distfiles and make that read-write.

If you have problems mounting the in /usr/portage, and then the distfiles in /usr/portage/distfiles, then I would just move use the make.conf, and specify a different DISTDIR outside /usr/portage.
