step1: emerge -B pkg1 pkg2 pkg3
step2: emerge -K pkg1 pkg2 pkg3

But there problem with this: if pkg2 DEPEND on pkg1, then it either will
not compile at all (without installing pkg1 first), or, worse, it will
compile using older, currently installed version of pkg1, and after
installing at step2 pkg2 become broken (because pkg1 was replaced by newer
version without recompiling pkg2).
