You are making it artificially complicated by doing it piecewise. Whenever you 
try to update only part of your tree, emerge cannot do changes anywhere else, 
which means that other stuff can block your intended changes.

emerge can do a lot more if you let it run over the whole world set. 

[which doesnt mean that blockers are impossible then. just that emerge has a 
lot more free hand to work around them.]

emerge -uDNavt --backtrack=100 world
