That's an option. It means I'd have to dedicate an entire volume to
that, but it's doable.
But if the unpack phase insists on doing a "mkdir /var/tmp/portage",
would that work with a mounted drive?
In fact, it's hard for me to image that the unpack phase would fail on
that, it's just a first guess. I just want to understand what's going
on and be sure I'm not making some mistake that'll bite me later.

Have you tried mounting (or bind mounting) to /var/tmp/portage instead
of symlinking?
