Another caveat emptor: right now, the MOSIX support is in development and the "mosix"
USE variable will cause your linux-*-2.4.6 packages to be patched incorrectly. I've
posted to the MOSIX list and have found a MOSIX user who may be interested in helping
test/improve MOSIX support in Gentoo Linux, but for now MOSIX support is still in
development.
