From what to what? genlop will tell you. If it was a path level update,
it is unlikely anything has changed significantly in the configs.

If you didn't accept updates to the default config files, emerging
baselayout again should pull them back in.

If you know which services were affected but didn't catch the exact
messages, try stopping and starting them manually so the output doesn't
get buried in all the other startup information. Setting RC_VERBOSE="yes"
in /etc/conf.d/rc may help.
