I was thinking a while back (dangerous) ;-). That it would be a good
idea to have a global use flag for all packages that have related vim

pam, then it would pull app-vim/pam-syntax, there are I think at least
20 syntax ebuilds.

It works if you use it the way they intend it to use it. Read the man
page. Otherwise yea it will crash.
I used it under 7.0 fine but when I upgraded to 7.1 it started causing
xorg to crash on startup same configuration
is evdev (for 7.1) stable now? and by stable I mean can I use it
without it crashing xorg? I should probably test this because I don't
recall it getting updated which means it is still broken.
