I don't really see what it has to do with ebuild devs... We're talking about the user's environment leaking into the portage build environment, no? Environment vars used by ebuilds can/should be set by users in a portage configuration file rather than being added to the environment. The only issue i see here is user customizations - fex, a hypothetical colorgcc that gets its config info from the env. -- Jason Stubbs
