"Sticky" USE flags to re-emerge _everything_ installed and upgrade what can be 
upgraded:

cd /var/db/pkg && for i in `ls -d */*` ; do x=${i}/USE USE="-* `cat ${x}`" 
emerge `echo ${i} | sed "s:-[0-9].*::g"` ; done


"Sticky" USE flags to upgrade everything with available upgrades:

cd /var/db/pkg && for i in `ls -d */*` ; do x=${i}/USE USE="-* `cat ${x}`" 
emerge -u `echo ${i} | sed "s:-[0-9].*::g"` ; done
