In gentoo, the only way I know to install packages is to run the emerge
command as root. The point of gentoo is to automate the download, untar,
configure, compile, and install process. I don't know of a way to do this
without being root. Does anyone know how to configure gentoo to split
the install phase, which must be run as root, from the other phases that
don't really need to be run as root? Otherwise, the suggestion from
Lennart is not useful for gentoo.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Compiling using portage in gentoo currently fails, since make
tries to create and mount /cgroup. Is this necessary for compilation?
Well, not if you build from a tarball. Unfortunately we have no tarballs
available yet.
I just tested systemd-1 on a sandboxed build and it still fails:
make[1]: Entering directory `/var/pisi/systemd-1-1/work/systemd-1'
./systemd --introspect=org.freedesktop.systemd1.Job >
org.freedesktop.systemd1.Job.xml
Sandbox violation: mkdir (/cgroup -> /cgroup)
Failed to mount /cgroup/systemd: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [org.freedesktop.systemd1.Job.xml] Error 1
Note that this is built as root too.
Don't build this as root, please.
