Is there a way to tell emerge to do this on its own? That is, create
binary packages of every package that it is replacing?
Isn't it --buildpkg?
Unfortunately, no. --buildpkg only builds binary packages after they've
been replaced already. I want binary packages of the packages that are
being replaced instead.
