emerge sync cleans up after itself.  Rather, rsync takes care of that,
so do not expect to gain too much.

Cleanup of kernels is good, if they are portage managed than you can
do something akin to this:

emerge -c =gentoo-sources-<version>-<revision>

e.g.

To remove all of these kernels

 linux-2.6.14-r1
 linux-2.6.14-r2
 linux-2.6.14-r4
 linux-2.6.14-r7
 linux-2.6.12-r1
 linux-2.6.13-r1

emerge -c ~sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.14 \<sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.14


Exciting.

thanks,
  joshua
