Well some people opposed this idea so what do everyone think about
making portage output stuff like this to a qa-warnings (or whatever)
file that developers can use? This would have the added benefit that
users would not normally see this stuff and report stuff so easily but
developers would still have easy access to it. Portage could even output
a header to this file saying not to file bug reports unless you know
what you are doing?
