the build logs are the same place they have always been, in
/var/tmp/portage/.....

that location is a symlink to:

/var/log/portage/<cat>:<pkg>-<ver>:<timestamp>.log

and that info is dumped to the console in volume every time emerge fails
for any reason.

/var/log/portage/elog/summary.log and /var/log/emerge.log are emerge's
logs and contains logs of what emerge is doing. You want build logs to
find out what make and gcc etc are doing.
