2.) emerge -e world on a system with lot of packages will most likley
fail somewhere during the process for various reasons. Fixig the problem
(for example by unmerging the package which causes it) and restarting
the process is not an option, as this may cost you lot's of time. In my
case, emerge -e world stopped 3 times. To continiue without starting it
all again, i did
# emerge --resume -p > package.list
and then edited this file with vi so that
# emerge --oneshot --nodeps `cat package.list`
You'd probably be interested in 'emerge --resume --skipfirst'.
