Ahh ... let's wind back a step.  The recommended file to change for package by 
package USE flags is /etc/portage/package.use, not /etc/portage/make.conf.  
The latter is only for setting USE flags globally, e.g. when you want libav 
for all packages, instead of the (now default) ffmpeg flag.

Ditto for the abi_x86_32 USE flag.
