Well, Gentoo uses default CFLAGS for some packages, seems to me like
they try to defeat stability issues. For these packages, you can
(mostly) enable a useflag then, to force usage of the custom CFLAGS.
If I correctly interpret the output of 'make -C /usr/src/linux V=1', the
kernel is built with standard CFLAGS, and it does _not_ provide a
useflag for overriding that.

What do you mean with that?
