ignored *what* then ?  you requested USE=vanilla control ssp, i said no and 
i'll add support for USE=nossp ... you requested USE/stub control, i said no, 
go delete the stubs

i dont see what else you're referring to ... be specific, vague claims only 
lead to wasting of both our times

all bets are off now then ... with Halcy0n leaving us, that leaves me as the 
only person maintaining the toolchain (there are few devs who contribute 
fixes for their ports and it helps out a ton, but that doesnt really count as 
being fully responsible for the toolchain packages).  no more making 
retroactive claims when i wasnt involved ;P

i trust azarah to help out, but he's been busy in real life so i havent/wont 
ask him to contribute since i know he cannot (even if he wants to)
