[python] Plone on Gentoo?

Does anyone out there run Plone on Gentoo built from portage?  Is it
well maintained? Any tips, gotchas, etc?

In my experience, Zope + CMF apps are difficult to maintain (read:
upgrades/patches and compatibility/interoperability), and need careful
attention.  I've never deployed Plone though.  And letting portage
maintain it makes nervous.

I do see that some care has gone into managing plone on gentoo.  I get
started with the gentoo-specific zope mgmt framework using this italian
"quick start" guide:
	http://sprint.zope.it/Doc/Zope/howto/plone_gentoo
Though, my Italian is limited to that which I can glean from knowing
Spanish.  The obvious bits + a lot of previous Zope+CMF knowledge got me
a working install relatively painlessly.`
