17 Both were already implemented in Paludis, if you're looking for a
18 reference implementation to try it out. There are also examples of
19 use of SDEPEND in the old kdebuilds, and of DEPENDENCIES in Exherbo. I
20 can give you a small patch to turn SDEPEND on for an EAPI if you like
21 (it's just a one line addition to the EAPI definition file).
