I've been running with this for years:

PORTAGE_ELOG_CLASSES="info, warn, error, log"
PORTAGE_ELOG_SYSTEM="save mail"
FEATURES="buildpkg parallel-fetch"

And I had been thinking that the "buildpkg" was going to make
reversion a lot easier, except that I've never actually installed one
of these puppies.  Mind, I only tried once.  I've got about 4 GB of
packages at the moment.  :o)
