I just successfully updated world.  In order to make room in my root, I
subsequently moved /var/tmp/portage to a mounted usb stick and symlinked
it to /var/tmp.

You don't need to use symlinks, you can simply set PORTAGE_TMPDIR in your make.conf.

Whatever you use, symlink or PORTAGE_TMPDIR, should not include the "portage" directory.  You need to redefine only the "/var/tmp" part, and portage will create a "portage" directory inside it.

For example PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/mnt/tmp".

/var/cache/{binpkgs,distfiles} are already successfully located on that
device, over symlinks.

You don't need symlinks, set PKGDIR and DISTDIR.
