I have gentoo-sources pinned to 2.4.19-r5, this is however what happens:

nosferatu gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r5 # emerge -up world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order.

Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N   ] sys-apps/reiserfsprogs-3.1c to /
[ebuild    U ] media-sound/esound-0.2.28-r1 to /
[ebuild    U ] app-text/chktex-1.5-r2 to /
[ebuild    U ] dev-util/ltrace-0.3.26-r1 to /
[ebuild    U ] sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r7 to /
[ebuild    U ] sys-apps/lsof-4.64 to /
[ebuild    U ] media-gfx/imagemagick-5.4.6 to /

nosferatu gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r5 # cd ..
nosferatu sys-kernel # mv gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r5/ gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r7 
nosferatu sys-kernel # cd gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r7/
nosferatu gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r7 # mv gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r5.ebuild
gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r7.ebuild 
nosferatu gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r7 # emerge -up world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order.

nosferatu gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r7 # 


So it tries to install -r7 with -r5 installed, and then when I "have" -r7
installed, it tries to install -r5 again.

OK, Portage 2.0.30 is working a lot better in this regard, but it won't be
perfect until emerge -u is SLOT-aware.
