1) It apears there is a way to pull packages out of the world set. :) |

============= |
34 |
/var/lib/portage/world |
35 |
Contains a list of all user-specified packages. You can safely edit |
36 |
this file, adding packages that you want to be considered in world |
37 |
set updates and removing those that you do not want to be |
38 |
considered. |

2) I'm not sure what happens when using |
43 |
|
44 |
"emerge --oneshot already-isntalled/package-higher-version" |
45 |
|
46 |
but it is easy to check this out by looking in /var/lib/portage/world before and |
47 |
after emerge finishes it's job. |
