As this has been used, I would definitely expect the world-file to be full of this, causing issues with updates later.

Also, by restricting to @system, any packages not in @system with a restriction on readline V8 will cause the mentioned problem.

@system is, for me, a lasr resort, but I tend to move my world file away (rename) and put it back once @system is done and a depclean finished. This is usually only needed after not updating for a while and/or big changes in the tree.

Would OP posting the world file help? I'm sure some of us could recognize things that shouldn't be there and could help clean it up. Things with a specific version should be given a hard look.

That would be a fantastic opportunity, but I'm not sure when tomorrow the update will be done ;-)

It won't hurt to get the info even while it is updating. As long as you are not emerging anything new, it shouldn't change. This will get the info.

cat /var/lib/portage/world

Then copy the output and paste it in a email. It's plain text so post the whole thing. You could just attach the file as well. Either way should work.
