A search of /usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py shows :

pkgmasklines=3Dgrabfile(settings["PORTDIR"]+"/profiles/package.mask")
pkgmasklines+=3Dgrabfile("/etc/portage/profiles/package.mask")

pkgunmasklines=3Dgrabfile("/etc/portage/package.unmask");

The code below shows unmaskdict being populated.  It seems that emerge=20
doesn't take it into account... dunno...

=2D-=20
