Or, as frogger suggested, to have them ~arch. If you want a "stable" =
kernel,=20
you shouldn't be using ~arch anyway so you'll end up with the straight=20
releases. If you want the pre's, rc's etc. emerge ~arch =
vanilla-sources.

The idea seems to have been almost passed over, and I don't see why.
