 * PORTAGE_ELOG_SYSTEM: This selects the module(s) to process the log messages. If left empty, logging is disabled. Any space-separated combination of save, custom, syslog, mail, save_summary, and mail_summary can be used. At least one module must be used in order to use elog.
 * save: This saves one log per package in, or if $PORT_LOGDIR is not defined.
 * custom: Passes all messages to a user-defined command in $PORTAGE_ELOG_COMMAND; this will be discussed later.
 * syslog: Sends all messages to the installed system logger.
 * mail: Passes all messages to a user-defined mailserver in $PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI; this will be discussed later. The mail features of elog require >=portage-2.1.1.
 * save_summary: Similar to save, but it merges all messages in, or if $PORT_LOGDIR is not defined.
 * mail_summary: Similar to mail, but it sends all messages in a single mail when emerge exits.
