I suspect we'll find 3 categories here: 1. Stuff like amd64 which isn't really a USE flag proper, but which is required due to how arch support works. As far as I know amd64 is the only one in this category. 2. Stuff like pango which really are documented. 3. Stuff like sysfs which are neither. File a bug... :) Rich
