[gentoo-dev] Common make.conf screwups?

[Ciaran McCreesh]

I've got some better vim syntax highlighting rules for make.conf lined
up to go into the next app-vim/gentoo-syntax. One of the things that
this lets me do is highlighting of (some kinds of) mistakes. What're the
most common screwups that people see? My current list is:

* CFLAGS: -0[123s] instead of -O[123s], -ffast-math globally

* USE: +foo flags

* ACCEPT_KEYWORDS: random duff entries (syntax is easy enough for me to
validate the whole thing)

* CHOST: there're certain settings that will cause glibc to fall over
and die that people who are used to debian/sparc will sometimes use

* MAKEOPTS: I'm kinda tempted to highlight "-j N" (where n is integer)
