No. You don't support each possible combination of CFLAGS, nor of compiler |

Sorry, but I think I cope well enough on xine-lib (which is a kinda strange |
| 10 |
package with many arch differences), and I don't really spend much time on |
| 11 |
the ebuild (or Gentoo maintenance) anymore for it, after cleaning it up one |
| 12 |
time. It required time but it was feasible, or I wouldn't be able to do it. |
