If I'm understanding you, you want:
fstab:
/dev/XX /mnt/p1 ...
/dev/YY /mnt/p2 ...

/usr/portage -> /mnt/p1

(or using bindmounting, whatever).
This makes no sense at all (at least not to me), when you can simply:
fstab:
/dev/XX /usr/portage ...
/dev/YY /usr/src ...
and get the same split filesystem, but without all the complication
you are proposing.
Unless there is something I don't understand, in which case I'm not
following your reasoning.
There are 2 possible things one can do:
1) Split everything, /usr, /usr/src, /usr/portage each on a seperate
filesystem.
2) Seperate multiple paths from /usr: Have 1 fs /mnt/data and link (or
bind mount) /usr/src, /usr/portage there. You have a shared fs for dirx,
that are usually not shared.
What would be the benefits of symlinks and bind mounts for doing 2)?
