Recently a coworker installed a Gentoo prefix on his Mac and the two
things he struggled in the begining:
 - libz required in the prefix is not availalbe on the system (libz on
his MacOS was too new)
 - cmake has to be built without LIBUV

After fixing those issues it built straight through to stage3.

Cheers,
Andrej

But I forgot floyd has got a "patch to keep the window position while
resizing the font" and offered it:

https://marc.info/?l=gentoo-user=149205691530349=2

And I, in my reply, accepted to try and apply it.

So, it depends on him if this topic is over or not.

It's very related, so probably best not to do any new subject for it.

If you have some experience managing Gentoo on Linux
Gentoo Prefix on MacOS might be good enough for you:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Prefix

TL;DR: it's idea is to use EPREFIX=$HOME/gentoo/
for all portage-installed packages.

The initial installation might require a few tweaks.

What power saving features are you referring to?  When I installed Gentoo with 
a Gnome desktop on a MacBook Pro, all power features on the OSX were also 
available on the Gentoo OS.

I suspect you are asking for something like this?

https://blog.newrelic.com/2016/06/20/docker-osx-mac/

However there may be better ways of meeting your requirements, if you explain 
what these might be in more detail (running Gentoo in containers may be a sub-
optimal solution).
