  I'm running an update on my netbook, and I noticed the warning about
SYNC in make.conf no longer being supported.  I had a look at the
documentation, and gave up.  It appears to be written BY developers who
have several overlays on their machines, FOR developers who have several
overlays on their machines, and assumes significant knowledge in
managing multiple overlays on a machine.

  For those of us who run bog-standard machines without all those bells
and whistles, it comes as a shock to the system.  What is the
quickest-n-dirtiest conversion to the "new order"?  Can someone please
post a bog-standard example... *WITHOUT* inheriting a gazillion eclasses
and/or cascading multiple overlays?

  The SYNC statement in my make.conf is...

SYNC="rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"

  My /etc/portage directory is...
