I did, but as I said there where 350+ of them. And every time I tried to emerge anything else, I couldn't because some package I needed was listed in package mask. I got the package list that I added to package.mask from /var/log/portage-logs for files dated from October 12 till 24. It was an epic fail. I couldn't even emerge -e world because of those stupid masked package versions...
