Hmmm, so should I just try and proceed with emerge system?
I get :

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "dev-libs/openssl" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- dev-libs/openssl-0.9.8a (masked by: missing keyword)
# Martin Schlemmer <azarah@g.o> (05 Jul 2005)
# Masked for testing, as it breaks api


For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
(dependency required by "dev-lang/python-2.4.2" [ebuild])



!!! Problem resolving dependencies for dev-lang/python
!!! Depgraph creation failed.

I can go through and deal with these, but I don't want to get started
down a track if it's the wrong one.
Did you run into lots of issues in the portage tree?  I'm assumming I
should use the one I pointed to earlier.  I'd prefer not to mix/match
from the normal tree.  But I'm open to suggestions on the best way to
proceed.
