found this in man emerge:

inject (-i)
Injecting a package inserts a 'stub' for that package so that Portage thinks 
that it is installed.  It is handy if you need, say, a
binary  version of XFree86 for esoteric hardware, or you just like to roll 
your own packages.  You must specify a category and par-
ticular version of a package for injecting.  For example, emerge inject 
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.4.19.
