I think you want "emerge clean", from man page:
clean (-c)
Cleans the system by removing packages that will not effect the
functionality of the system. The arguments can be ebuilds,
classes, or dependencies. For example, emerge clean binutils
cleans out old versions of binutils; emerge clean
net-www/mozilla-0.9.9-r2 cleans out that specific version of
Mozilla. This is generally safe to use. Note that clean does
not remove unslotted packages.
Hope this helps,
Martyn
