Sure, though unfortunately it's not the standard format.  Every line
starts with the date in seconds since epoch.  I'm not sure there's a
good way to limit it to only the specified time range, but anything
that close to and not less than would certainly be better.  Here is an
example of one emerge from the logs.

1170280647: Started emerge on: Jan 31, 2007 16:57:27
1170280647:  *** emerge --ask --update --verbose pam
1170280651:  >>> emerge (1 of 1) sys-libs/pam-0.78-r5 to /
1170280651:  === (1 of 1) Cleaning
