I install all Python versions I need from portage, then use
virtualenv[1] to create environments with different versions of Python,
where I install the needed packages with easy_install. Not as simple as
using Portage, but it works.

I'd also be very interested in some kind of "multislot" functionality,
where every Python package installs in all available Python slots. But
that's probably non-trivial to implement.
