The trick here is to unmerge pam-login, then merge shadow with USE="pam".
The functionality of pam-login has been folded into shadow, so using pam-login is deprecated.

Dont "snip".  The relevant part comes *after* the "blocks" lines.

Also, you are mis-interpreting the "blocks" lines.  The correct
reading of "X (is blocking Y)" is that you have (or should have) X
installed, and now portage wants to install Y instead.  Usually this
is because Y supercedes the functionality that used to be provided by
X, and  in almost all cases, the right thing to do is to unmerge X and
merge Y.

The exceptions on your system are pam-login/shadow, and
seamonkey/mozilla.  For some reason portage wants to install/keep
both.  This is where you need to look at the *full* --tree output to
see what is trying to pull those packages in.
