I think the X USE variable is fine. The idea of an ebuild depending on |

the environment in which it is built is the entire point of the exercise |

of using Gentoo Linux. USE flags are complex and easy to misunderstand, |

but I don't think PEBKAC is the thing that should dictate the |

architecture of portage. |
