The last and most exciting point, I am heavily depending on some perl modules, One of them actually is not available on Gentoo. (dev-perl/DBD-CSV) I want to avoid installing it in my $HOME. Is there any description how to convert such packages into custom emerge packages and manage them in a custom overlay?

Take a look at app-portage/g-cpan. It lets you create and emerge and ebuild for any perl module available in CPAN. It did take me a while to get it properly configured (to put the ebuilds in the right place, and to recognize the overlays I use (it doesn't require any - it just needs to know enough to not step on them.)
