Hi there!
I've done exactly this for quite some time. And I even implemented
something resembling a program to do it for me, without the need for
locking or other more advanced functionality. Ran it automatically
every night, without supervision, and it worked fine for me.
If you're interested,
If youput 'distlocks' in your FEATURES in /etc/make.conf, then Portage
will use lockfiles to prevent different instances of Portage running
from clobbering each other's file. If I'm not mistaken, this is on by
default for most profiles. `man make.conf` for more information. :-)
