I have to add this.  From what I understand about the scripts he is
using, he is blindly letting emerge do updates without checking to see
if the updates fall into line with what he *needs*.  If I read it
correctly, any USE flag change will be missed until it hits the fan and
is broken.  That would then mean taking a lot of time to go back through
logs and figuring out just when it went wrong and most importantly, what
caused it and how to fix it.  Since the change could have happened
several updates ago, that could involve some work and a lot of rebuilding. 

Doing the sync in a script and even getting a email or something with
the -p output is fine but updating blindly is not a good idea. 

At this point, I think I understand why he is having so much trouble. 
At the very least, check to see what USE flags are changing before doing
updates.  There are other things that are important but that is one that
changes a good bit.
