Well the trick in using a gentoo build system is the following:
1. Build for minimal size possible. This means being VERY conservative
on the USE flags and telling gcc to use "-Os".
2. Have your man system build these as binary packages, and then
install the binaries to the compact flash. Make sure not to copy
portage or any of the build chain, they are not needed.
3. Write an script to do step two automatically.
