Gentoo is a packaging system around source files. If you install stuff
then it tracks it and removes *all* that cruft at a later stage when you
upgrade or re-install
So when cvs changes version it clears out all those old 0.15 files and
puts in the 0.16 files... make install doesn't do this.
I have my own gentoo ebuilds for cvs and use them a lot for the modules
that I don't have my own local development on. This means that when I
put in a new main mythtv I can just "emerge" the main modules, and build
my custom ones and then I'm up and running again. Very convenient
