* Paludis supports multiple repositories, don't know about pkgcore, but
  i guess they support it as well. Portage doesn't. (actually it has 3
  repositories, but that's not really related to multiple repository
  support)

* Paludis handles ENVVARs on a per package basis,  Portage doesn't.
  (no idea about how pkgcore does it)

* Paludis repositories aren't necessarily ebuild repositories.

This is what comes to my mind right now. The list is certainly not 
complete :-)
