emerge -pu world >filelist.lst 2>&1
or
emerge -pu world &>filelist.lst


I think the command you tried means:
"2>&1": Pipe stderr to the same as stdout (the screen).
">filelist.lst": Pipe stdout to file.
Stderr remains piped to screen.

Swapping the two redirect-commands will make stdout go to file, then
make stderr goto the same as stdout (i.e. file).
