Well, when I grep for portage in make.globals, I see PORTDIR=/usr/portage. |

This implies that it is a settable parameter. You could set PORTDIR in any |
| 3 |
on the three config files, or theoretically in your environment. So, you |
| 4 |
could put it in make.conf. Of course, you could make /usr/portage a symlink |
| 5 |
to another place and swap your symlinks when you want to use a particular |
| 6 |
tree. |
