Thanks Dale, I just upgraded two boxen to sys-apps/portage-2.2.18 and both are 
complaining thus:
====================================
!!! SYNC setting found in make.conf.
    This setting is Deprecated and no longer used.  Please ensure your 'sync-
type' and 'sync-uri' are set correctly in /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf
====================================

I recall reading "New portage plug-in sync system" in eselect news, but it 
doesn't mention creating such files manually:

"Migration:
    Edit /etc/portage/repos.conf/*.conf files, add the auto-sync option
    to each repository definition."
