Have I successfully updated my system?

I ran this command:

emerge \
     -v \
     --verbose-conflicts \
     --deep \
     -update \
     --changed-use \
     --keep-going \
     --with-bdeps=y \
     --changed-deps \
     --backtrack=100 \
     @world

and got tons of stuff that looks like spurious debugging/tracing info
Probably not.  And a good thing too.
Assuming the above is an accurate transcription of the command you used.

-update is definitely NOT the same as --update.

-update is equivalent to -u -p -d -a -t -e
so --update --pretend --debug --ask --tree --empty-tree
--debug, --tree produce voluminous output,
--empty-tree says rebuild everything.

Hope this helps.

Yes, now my emerge is failing again in the way I'd expected it to fail  ;-)
Thank you for debugging for me :-)
