Hi devs,

I want to inform you that I uploaded a full set of binary packages to
ibiblio last night. You can find em to the i686 subdir in the
packages/snapshots dir.
The latest emerge version contains two new flags for dealing with binary
packages. (thanks daniel)
If you use the flag --buildpkg emerge will create binary packages from
every package it builds.
If you use --usepkg emerge will use a binary package if it is available.
At the moment emerge does not test if you have changed someting in the
USE variable.
So here are the setting I used for these binaries.

USE="gnome bonobo gtk X qt kde motif opengl mmx sse mitshm alsa esd lcms
gif sdl lm_sensors lvm pcmcia-cs berkdb gdbm tcpd pam
     readline gpm slang libwww ssl nls"

Additionally to these defaults I added "mozilla ldap xml imap".

CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS="-mpentiumpro -march=pentiumpro -O3 -pipe"

These binaries can be used with the latest sys-i686 snapshot without
problems, but make sure you use the same USE flags in the future.
The binaries will not run on i486 or i586(k6/2) machines.
