well I have a typo in that example it should be `use media/gdkpixbuf`.

you can have both in use (gdkpixbuf and imlib) but normaly only one can
be used.
gdkpixbuf is the newer feature richer lib so in that example i first
check if we
have gdkpixbuf in use. if not I test if imlib is in use.

--- snip ------------
>gnome(libs,core) media(imlib,gdkpixbuf)

  will this preserve order? as in, if I say "imlib,gdkpixbuf" will it
  use imlib over gdkpixbuf where it can, and gdkpixbuf elsewhere?
---- snap ------------

USE="media(imlib,gdkpixbuf)" defines both and does not care about in
which order they are defined

to test if you have media(imlib) i think we should use / instead of ()

like

`use media/imlib`

I don't think we need any other extra functionality in portage to take
care about the order of vars in USE.
