I have much the same problem, but don't know how to handle it. I saw
a script on the forums for handling this, but it seemed that this was
intended for use on only one machine. With differing packages installed
on different machines, the problem seems (to me) insurmountable. I hope
somebody else thinks differently, though.

Subject: [gentoo-user] managing shared distfiles
Howdy all,
Right now, I have my main desktop gentoo box sharing it's
/usr/portage/distfiles with my other 4 gentoo boxes via nfs. This is
working good, but I want a remove stale tarballs. That is, I need
something that would go through and remove older versions of
packages if
there were multiple versions. I only need to keep the most recent
package to share to the other boxes.
I'm not really explaining this well, but if anyone has written
something (or knows of something) to do this, that'd be great.
Otherwise, I might take a crack at a bash script to do it?
