emerge provides two strategies in thia area:
1. path substition by drive letters, which has to be configured in kdesettings.bat \
(you already refered to this) 2. short path usage - replace pathes by the short \
form. This feature is currently package based and could be activated by setting \
self.subinfo.options.useShortPathes - see EmergeBase.__adjustPath() and where is is \
used for more details. both strategies could be used together
There are several limits in this area - nmake, mingw32-make, cmake, command line, \
each one has its own different limit
I found some related thread:

arguments. If they get more they will not complain but strange things will happen \
like compiler segfaulting or gcc misinterpreting the arguments at around position \
8192. I did not report this as a gcc bug, maybe somebody else already is registered \
wherever that can be done. I was using mingw4.
So emerge.py now first checks - it allows a maximum of 10 chars like in c:\kderoot. \
This results in command line lengths up to around 7700 (maybe more, this is what I \
saw).
I was using kderootsvn which makes gcc die when compiling \
c:\kderootsvn\download\svn-src\qt\src\3rdparty\sqlite\sqlite3.c, the command line \
having a length of 8214
When this review is closed, I will update the emerge wiki</pre>
