(Ok this thread grew too long, so I gotta chime in :))

We could start using extended attributes or mandate reiser4 for portage dir or

Sorry for the noise and insane "implementation" suggestion :)..

PS
Actually, come to think of it, reizer4 might be just the right tool for the 
job (for keeping the volatile info split into bunch of small entries), 
hypothetically of course..
