Does turning off nls break anything?  I did the livecd install and
everything in the base install was compiled with +nls.  Once I started
compiling my own stuff like X, Gnome etc, I change to -nls in my USE flags.

I only speak English so I don't need Native Language Support.  I flipped
the nls USE flag back on and update world/system would have to recompile
a *lot*.

I will probably have all the main software I want compiled in the next
day or two and then plan to do a backup.  I don't want to continue with
those plans if I am going to get burned down the road because I turned
of Native Language Support .  I would rather recompile now while I have
the time ; )

Has anyone gotten burned by turning off Native Language Support?

The only thing I've ever run into on the server side that wanted it was 
the Horde framework requiring PHP to have NLS... however I didn't look 
real hard for a workaround so that might not have been a hard requirement.

BTW I went with -nls in /etc/make.conf and added +nls to 
/etc/portage/package.use for PHP on that server. That worked well so I 
assume you can just add NLS as needed to any web framework stuff.
