The upgrade path is gone anyway since we don't have EAPI=0 dev-lang/python anymore in tree. If we don't care about upgrade path anymore might as well get rid of profiles/obsolete too? And I do care about it, but it's gone now. -Samuli

I'd like to remind that we can't add EAPI's to system pkgs since it would break the upgrading path. If it works well, it should likely go in without USE flag... -Samuli

I haven't found any using it on march=pentium3. It looks like debian has it enabled in their gcc-4.4 packages, and I've not found any problems on deb boxen (32 and 64 bit systems on modern chips) either. The USE flag probably ought to be +. -JimC -- James Cloos OpenPGP: 1024D/ED7DAEA6

None that I know of, but then again, I have not really played with it a whole lot to say one way or the other. If you want to test it, please file any bugs you find to toolchain.

Doesn't make sense to keep pkgs that won't build in tree. -Samuli
