  That seems to be it...

emerge -pv --update --changed-use --deep --with-bdeps=y world

produces a list of packages.  The list ends with...

  The 29 upgrades and 23 new seem to exactly match what I had from the
new and upgrade portions of emerge world.  Thanks for your help.

  emerge -p --depclean

generates dire warnings.  I keep a previous version of the kernel
