But it does not (IMHO) save binaries for enough packages. For example,
it saves a binary for portage but not for python. I think it would be
good if it saved a binary package for everything which would be built
in stage-1, which would provide a much better 'get out of jail free' if
a critical package gets corrupted or fails to run.
