Well, that depends... If you have sys-apps/foo installed from the gentoo-x86 repository, and the breakmygentoo repository issues a news item about sys-apps/foo, should it be displayed?
Well, probably not. Off hand, perhaps portageq could provide a query that returns some type of UUID for a package, such as a hash of the ebuild. That way, the hash from /var/db/pkg could be compared to the hash from the repo that has the news item. If the hashes don't match, then the news item is irrelevant.
