When in doubt on these things, I generally winnow down the slotted components and re-emerge everything involved, and run revdep-rebuild enough to satisfy me that there aren't any _obvious_ breakages.
Hey Lindsay, you might have a look at the output of emerge --depclean -p. If you have a lot of old packages on your machine, there's no telling what versions of them are being linked. If you can get rid of things that don't belong anymore, you might find that revdep-rebuild will find a lot of breakages (indicating that packages were linking to old versions of packages). Do be cautious before blindly unmerging things though!
