Only to have the whole lot fall in a heap when an "emerge -u" writes
over the top of your carefully tailored USE flags. USE flags as they
are currently implemented have a few shortcomings, and it looks like
from this discussion that per package overides will be the real
solution. In the meantime, please dont build console apps with X
support by default! If I want X support, I will run X and gvim.
BillK - one who has been bitten by silly USE defaults like X in console
applications ...
