Uh, commenting out the line is changing the inittab (and I have no
idea if it works or not offhand).

With Gentoo I prefer to not have huge religious debates about Gentoo.
We try to give users as much choice as possible which lets us sidestep
stupid arguments about whether such-and-such is better than something
else.  The problem is that by their nature there usually can only be
one default (or one default default if you want to make it turtles all
the way down with profiles and such).  So, suddenly we end up fighting
over this stuff anyway...
