Just do a emerge --resume and that's it.  It will apply the --skipfirst 
from make.conf.

Now that I think about this, I think it is --keep-going that I have in 
make.conf.  Be right back.  Yep.  I got the two confused for some 
reason.  I don't have --skipfirst in make.conf but do have 
--keep-going.  So, if you stop emerge and want to skip Chrome, just 
emerge --resume --skipfirst and it should skip Chrome.  Just make sure 
that only Chrome is actively compiling.  Sometimes two packages will be 
working at the same time.  If you have two or more compiling at the same 
time, I'm not sure how emerge will handle that.  I don't think I've ever 
ran into that before.  :/

It seems emerge has so many options, it's hard to keep them all 
straight.  ;-)
