Set PORT_LOGDIR=/var/log/portage in make.conf (or some other directory). Be sure to clean it up some time because the logs of big packages tend get really large, e.g. the openoffice log is 25MB. I have a daily cron job running to bzip2 all logs. The size of the directory went from 100MB to 10MB, but then again I've never cleaned it so it contains all logs since I first installed gentoo.
