Normally, when I'm about to update an important package, I back it up

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?

Add FEATURES="buildpkg" to make.conf...

This creates packages for everything and only *after* they've been merged. I need to create tbzs for packages that are being replaced, and only when I want to.
