What is the contents of /var/lib/portage/world?

Plenty, with the favourite being user error. If the packages aren't in
world nor depended on by something n world, portage will not upgrade them.
I have copied the system to a new HDD recently and done an `emerge
@world`, too, and everything went OK.
OK as in everything you expected to build built? Or OK as in no error
messages appeared?
The former. When I do an eix-sync, I expect that emerge -Du @world
updates every package listed with the U-mark.
There are no error messages anyway.

I'll do this, but now I'm just wondering how I ended up with an empty
world file.
