For example (realizing that this is completely fictional as I'm just
on onlooker [but maybe sort of real-sounding], just to illustrate):

1) Portage guys have to finalize a prefix-aware portage in ~ (latest
indications point to this happening by quarter X year Y)
2) Portage tree must be updated for prefix
3) Concurrent to #2 our devs will release an installer that uses an
overlay tree (ambitious users can jump in here)

First, The way of contribute Gentoo Portage with prefixed path, I think
that is very good idea.

I think also, that not bad, choose will be release converter for those users
which has Getoo for OSX to Gentoo Portage for OSX.
Some how shell script or maybe good HowTo, which shows, how to
migrate to present state.

We should find a simple way to migrate. Users need it.
Maybe the simplest deinstall all packages which bootstrap installed
is the best solution.
