I didn't find anything concrete about what it does but I did find a
reference to the fact that rxvt doesn't read the $HOME/.Xresources
file if the operating system loads them into the X display. He also
does not seem to be a big Gentoo fan so I am guessing this flag has
something to do with this.  It's the reference to the "small version"
in the USE flag that was confusing me.
