Reading about confcache i have one question:

When i saw, that this feature exists (in make.examples) i activated  
it. But it did not work because i had not emerged confcache. I think  
this check should be stricter, if i want confcache and have  
FEATURES="confcache" and confcache is not emerged, i think  
emerge ...  should die, not just say "Ok, you said you want it but  
you don't have it, so i don't use it". What do you think about that?
