I think this solution is far better,  until someone smarter than me tells me 
otherwise.

Don't know whether I like the VALID_USE var name,  so please at least think 
about something a little better if you can ;).  ( I like green,  but not too 
green if you know what I mean )

Will we still have to define the use flags in IUSE?

I'm guessing we can't use IUSE to store this information because of the  whole 
glep-55 thing.  IUSE would be my preferred var.  both defining the 
"relationships" and the use flags in only one go.
