We already recommend using genkernel in the manual for 1.4, so moving this 
into an ebuild wouldn't be very different from how it is now. Personally, I 
am satisfied with how the kernels are done right now, but I brought it up 
because it sounds like a feature that could be useful on some systems or by 
some people and it would fit more in with the current Portage setup where 
everything is automaticly compiled. Though I would like to see the -src 
suffix get in at some point even if the kernels stay the same. I keep /var/
tmp/portage, but sometimes it might be nice to have the sources in /usr/src 
too. I don't think Portage3 would be neccesary for this... It could probably 
be a few well placed lines in the current Portage to add it, though I suppose 
I would say the same for sticky USE flags. Can a Portage dev comment on how 
complex/simple it would be to implement -src?
