Hello World!

I want to ask for suggestions and opinions for the best way to handle this bug:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=158434

I am usually very hesitant to add new use flags to the tree (unless they are *really* necessary or imply a great advantage.) ; though i am not sure here if anybody else would consider this a good recommendation for handling textrels.

I was thinking more of a simple 'use hardened && myconf=" .. "' specific line for this ebuild; but it's probably a good idea offering to more developers the easy choice of this feature through a USE flag?

If it looks enough useful for many people; then i think we can proceed to implement it; if it will only be used by this ebuild; then i am already against it ;-)

Thanks;
