I'll see if I can send you a binary off-list. It's not a particularly
complicated package, so I reckon you should be able to run a pre-compiled
executable without many issues.

If package.use is a directory, that's fine (and recommended). Every file in the
directory, and any subdirectories, contains package.use entries, all
concatenated together by Portage when processing. If you want, you could append
the entry to zz-autounmask, but you could also do something more elegant:

        /etc/portage/package.use $ mkdir sys-auth
        /etc/portage/package.use $ echo "sys-auth/polkit elogind" > 
sys-auth/polkit
