rm -f /usr/portage/distfiles/*
So that's where all the space went! I had about 500 MB tied up by the downloaded files. My dad tells me Gentoo keeps these around so you only have to download a patch for upgrades. I'll have to keep a closer eye on this directory in the future. Now I have more space to compile stuff. :-)
