Very good idea! In fact, that's a good idea after any major core |
| 14 |
dependency upgrade, including xorg, gcc, any of the emul- stuff for |
| 15 |
32-bit, glibc, etc. |

?? xorg-server is dlloader now by default. There's not a USE flag for it |
| 21 |
any more. Still, it's likely many of the testers have it set so if |
| 22 |
there's something strange that still tests for it... . |
