Thanks for the pointer.I do have one additional question: What happens when a build in 'emerge @preserve-rebuild' fails?
I'm assuming that 'emerge @preserve-rebuild' does something extra beyond a regular emerge, so I can't just 'emerge --skipfirst --resume'. If it only removes the listed, preserved libraries in addition to the emerge, then I can fix things up by hand by deleting the named libraries.
