The appearance of USE flags (which is what we're talking about) is

The presence of a USE flag may not change, but its default setting can.
If you have with no setting for mozilla in USE, emerge mozilla and then
do emerge --info, you'll see mozilla added to USE. Some other packages
have similar effects, I think postgresql also does it.
