I use Gentoo, as you well know from every other time the "anyone who |
| 17 |
ever touches any other distribution is a traitor and should go away |
| 18 |
and never do anything with Gentoo again" line has been tried. |

I care because it's a huge waste of everyone's time that's all happened |
| 21 |
because one developer refused to admit that he was in effect advocating |
| 22 |
the use of a flag in the same category as -ffast-math, even when shown |
| 23 |
how it would break correct code. |

Exherbo doesn't and never has used Gentoo ebuilds. Again, as you know |
| 29 |
