The quandry then becomes how do you have chef manage your
/etc/portage/package. files? Do you want it to be a remote_file?
template? or augeas(*whatever alternatives are go here*)?

It's much easier if you make /etc/portage/package.{keywords,use} into a directories and have chef manage files within them.  This is what I've done in the past, and it works rather well.
