  - my clocktime setting from "local" to "UTC"
  - my console font from "lat0-10" (48 rows with vga=2) to "default8x16"
    (30 rows with vga=2).
  - the hostnames of *BOTH* my Gentoo machines to "localhost" (try ssh
    with *THAT* setup!?!?).

  Is there a way to get etc-update ignore those items?



You could try dispatch-conf (see manpage) or emerge conf-update.  
Unfortunately, etc-update has many known bugs.  The problem you mentioned 
sounds like bug 26807.
