When I am in such a situation, I let emerge print out the package list to be built (in the order it intends to merge them), put that list into a file and
edit it a bit so I can use it in the following command:

emerge -1O $(sed -n '1,100p' packagelist)

Thanks Frank for that hint.
It would make using a large command file obsolete IFF all wents through.
But in my experience emerge fails again and again with some package.
Now, I have to remove these package and those which have been successfully emerged from my list.

Helmut.
