So note the comment in the email you are responding to about locking 
down the used dep/rdeps for an install.

Via that, could lock down the slot it was compiled against.  Bit more 
to it then that, but the concerns your raising *again* are not 
use/slot based, your pointing at other portage faults (thus please 
seperate those concerns from use/slot).
