Hey Diego, (not sure if you are on -dev list or not, therefore adding
you to cc)

What is the consensus on if the metadata.xml specifies that it will add
CFLAGS? Surely it is not as black/white as the global suggests..?

local:debug:app-portage/eix: Build with CXXFLAGS/LDFLAGS for debugging
support; not recommended for normal use.

Thanks,
Jeremy
