emerge --root=/workdir sys-apps/busybox will install busybox and all
build-time dependencies into /workdir.
Intriguing.
Thank you for that pointer.
That actually is close to what I'm messing with. UML+NFS root
I could probably hack up with something where calls to emerge actually
reach out to the full host and runs emerge with the proper --root.
