ebuild(5):
HELPER FUNCTIONS: COMPILE
econf [configure options]
[snip]
Note that the EXTRA_ECONF is for users only, not for
ebuild writers. If you wish to pass more options to
configure, just pass the extra arguements to econf.
I stand corrected. Might it be acceptable, though, to set it with
something like
EXTRA_ECONF="--enable-wombats $EXTRA_ECONF"
in the ebuild? That would still allow the users to set their own flags.
