change virtuals:
add virtual/glibc dev-libs/uclibc (almost all ebuilds require this, so 
rewriting them would take much time)

the use.defaults should go into base

the packages file will only work if you also add the parent file (having 
../base)

the other way round would be to copy ../base/packages, remove the packages 
w/ '^-' in my packages file, and add the proper minimal versions to it.
