It's a lot easier to override make.conf via environment variables.
All the variables either directly override or augment when they're in
the environment.

For example, in make.conf:

    CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -pipe"
    CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
    CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
    USE="blah blah blah"
    FEATURES="ccache collision-protect sfperms strict"
    GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.ucsb.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/gentoo ftp://gentoo.chem.wisc.edu/gentoo"

then put this in a profile/.bash_profile/.bashrc (depending on how you
like to do things):

    if [ -n "$IM_AT_WORK" ]; then               # use an appropriate test
        MAKEOPTS="-j2"
        SYNC=rsync://some_rsync_server_only_accessible_from_work/gentoo-portage
        DISTDIR="/path/to/some/nfs/mounted/distdir"
        export MAKEOPTS SYNC DISTDIR
    else
        FEATURES="distcc cvs digest sign"       # this is cumulative
        MAKEOPTS="-j5"
        PORTAGE_GPG_DIR="/home/ka0ttic/.gnupg"
        PORTAGE_GPG_KEY="ED34A45E"
        SYNC=rsync://zeus/gentoo-portage
        GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://zeus/gentoo/
            ftp://ftp.ucsb.edu/pub/mirrors/linux/gentoo
            ftp://gentoo.chem.wisc.edu/gentoo"
        export FEATURES MAKEOPTS PORTAGE_GPG_DIR PORTAGE_GPG_KEY SYNC GENTOO_MIRRORS
    fi
