Replace is probably better. You can always manually append if you want to, but it is much harder to remove unless portage has logic to handle a inverse of every option and processing them in order (ie --with-bdeps=y --with-bdeps=n works out to a no, and vice-versa). If you just replace it you'll eliminate a bunch of issues. Rich
