Also, try running prelink on the system - I found a number of old, orphaned binaries on a ~5yr plus gentoo yesterday that had broken years ago when I ran prelink this time! - it complains about missing dependencies. Some files did turn out to be from currently installed packages (curl, gnuplot, glade, ...) that revdep-rebuild didnt pick up - a bit of a worry ...
Is there a script that uses the "equery check" functionality and lists both broken packages and orphans in the system directories not accounted for? - this seems like a good start.
