Maybe the simplest deinstall all packages which bootstrap installed

Indeed.  User migration will be an interesting exercise.  I think it's
more or less unavoidable to recompile everything for the prefixed
install.  Any ideas on how to do this are welcome.  I guess the most
trival one is to copy the world file, unmerge everything, and then
reemerge everything from the copied world file. I guess this is not a
good solution...
Looknig at DarwinPorts, I dont see any other way to obtain what we want.
Prefixed installation makes changes eg path in configfiles, libs.
I think that document, which tells users what should be done, which files
move, how move and where move is require.

We should also remember that users that uses GetooForOSX didnt have to be LinuxUser before. For them location of some files dont go without saying.

Thinking in prefixed way, we can say that DeveloperTools/XCode doesnt be needed
in some way. I try think about simple bootstrap for Portage which makes
independend of system tools

Btw, what abuot draf skel of location dirs, files, configs of prefix?
What do u think about /opt/gentoo/?
