@preserved-rebuild is only able to detect cases where the actual library
file (*.so) got deleted. If the file is still there but there's runtime
linking issues, it's not gonna find them. revdep-rebuild does find them,
but not all of them. revdep-rebuild.sh finds cases revdep-rebuild does not.
It seems that the safest option is to run "emerge -a @preserved-rebuild"
first, then "revdep-rebuild -i -- -a" and finally "revdep-rebuild.sh -i
-- -a". (The "-- -a" is just so emerge asks you before emerging anything.)
