It takes a x86 stage3 (which you have to download before) and a portage
snapshot if you want it to, does all the necessary work to properly set
up the 32bit chroot, compiles the packages you told it to, clears up
everything, checks links for being correct and then packs everything
into a tarball. So you end up with a tarball that looks almost exactly
like the ones we use for app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-*.
