7 Yup, euse is helpful, or you can grep /usr/portage/profiles/use.*

10 I suspect we'll find 3 categories here:
11
12 1. Stuff like amd64 which isn't really a USE flag proper, but which
13 is required due to how arch support works. As far as I know amd64 is
14 the only one in this category.

16 2. Stuff like pango which really are documented.
17
18 3. Stuff like sysfs which are neither. File a bug... :)
