FEATURES="buildpkg" emerge --oneshot portage python

Now you have packages for both portage and python that you can unpack
into / to repair and damage. It might be a good idea to do the same for
glibc, gcc and bash.

I have buildpkg set by default, but if space is limited, it would be
useful to be able to specify this on a per-package basis (I know this can
be done with /etc/portage/bashrc) or even be able to tell portage to only
save packages for system ebuilds.
