i'd prefer to see these moved into the normal binutils/gcc ebuilds myself |

are these libraries special ? that is, are these things specific to xmingw ? |
| 15 |
or are they just ebuilds which take normal packages and force them to be |
| 16 |
compiled with the xmingw toolchain ? |
| 17 |

if they are xmingw-specific, then they should be added to the tree as sep |
| 19 |
packages, but if they are normal packages and these ebuilds are special hacks |
| 20 |
to cross compile them with xmingw, then they have no business in the tree |
