It is up to you how to rearrange them but I suggest that you

You could have a separate /usr or /usr/portage partition so that when/if
it runs out of space, your system continues to run despite the emerge
coming to a halt.
I don't don't know if this is very practical, atleast without a volume
manager.
Besides, isn't this taken care of by the filesystem already? I know that
ext2/3 preserve a persentage of the partition size for root especially for
these cases.
