Can't resist: you left out one option. I do my updates unattended: I
sync, I look at what should be updated, set emerge up to run over
night to update those packages, and go to bed. 

BUT! I did set PORT_LOGDIR in /etc/make.conf and I check the next
morning to see if there are any important messages from einfo or
ewarn. 

To be honest, I can't quite imagine you staring at the screen for 2
bloody hours the next time you update glibc, or mozilla, or kde...
=D

Back on track for the OP: if you are root of a a box, then it is your
responsibility to make sure you see the warning messages produced from
the emerge.
