15 Nope, it's related to the later portage tools dropping 'hardcoded
16 support' for OSX, that's why I haven't keyworded the newer version,
17 because it simply generates python stack traces for some tools (not
18 emerge), which I don't consider to be "good". It was deliberately not
19 fixed (sort of impossible), hence deliberately not keyworded by me.
