Redistricting gave GOP member a safer district:

Keller (FL-8)
Shaw (FL-22)
Grucci (NY-1)
Kelly (NY-19)
Chabot (OH-1)
Sherwood (PA-10)

Redistricting gave GOP a less safe district:

Morella (MD-8)
Hayes (NC-8)

Redistricting gave GOP member a district with no major partisan change (or unknown--please correct otherwise):

Hayworth (AZ-5)
Pombo (CA-11)
Simmons (CT-2)
Shays (CT-4)
Johnson (CT-5), though in 2002 faced inc. vs. inc.
Crane (IL-8)
Hostettler (IN-8)
Nussle (IA-1)
Leach (IA-2)
Ryun (KS-2)
Northup (KY-3)
Knollenberg (MI-9)
Gutknecht (MN-1)
Bass (NH-2)
Sweeney (NY-20)
Taylor (NC-11)
English (PA-3)
Hart (PA-4)
Weldon (PA-7)
Bonilla (TX-23)? - originally safer, then less safe - not sure how final district compared to the 1990s
Goode (VA-5)

-------

Seems that GOP-dominated redistricting if anything limited Dem gains.

NY-01 was actually not changed at all(maybe a tiny bit) in 2001.  IN-08 was made slightly more Dem as was NC-11.  MI-09 was made marginally more GOP.

I am trying to think of a few other districts where redistricting was supposed to move a district one way or another that Democrats are Republicans picked up.

Here are Democratic seats made more Republican that Republicans picked up:

FL-05(Karen Thurman)
TX-01(Sandlin)
TX-02(Lampson)
OH-03(Hall)

Democratic seats made more Democratic that Republicans picked up:

IN-02(Roemer, although Dems won it back)
IN-09(Hill, Dems won it back)

Other Republican seats made more Democratic that Dems picked up:

TN-04(Hillaery)
MD-02(Ehrlich)
GA-03(now GA-08), (Chambliss)

Other Republican seats made more Republican that Dems picked up:

CA-11(Pombo)
FL-16(Foley, GOP won it back)
