That may be a way to do it.  It isn't what I was thinking of though.
I've never heard of this and man emerges has almost nothing to say
about it.  And `man inject'  doesn't now about it at all.

The man page makes a brief comment:

[ebuild U-] x11-base/xfree-4.3.0 [4.2.99.902]
    The - represents lack of SLOT  information  about  Xfree.   This
    will  occur  when the previous version emerged was injected (see
    inject for more info) or very outdated (so old that SLOT did not
    exist).   Either  way,  a newer version of Xfree is availabe for
    your updating delight.

But fails to mention where one can `see inject'.   That is the only
occurance of `inject' in man emerge.

I think is was something entered in /etc/portag/package.SOMETHING
