I wish to build a binary package of glibc-2.14.1-r3. I don't want to

emerging an older glibc and won't let you proceed, so I can't just
install it normally and them build a binpkg.
This should help:
--buildpkgonly (-B)
Creates binary packages for all ebuilds processed
without actually merging the packages. This comes with the caveat that
all build-time dependencies must already be emerged on the system.
Oh my, I must be blind. I was looking at the man page for a while and
*still* missed that option...
Alzheimer's must be setting in :-P Thanks.
