10 Probably too off the wall and simpleton for the "problem" - but what if
11 the install docs included something like:
12
13 "
14 To obtain the sources for your new install, please use:
15
16 emerge -fDN world
17
18 to download all of the sources used to build your stage3 install.
19 "
20

22 get the sources anyway to proceed forward, so this would fill the
23 initial gap...or am I missing something more critical?)
