7 We still need a xaw USE variable. When xaw is defined, it means that apps are
8 allowed to compile-in their *optional* xaw functionality. They will always
9 compile-in (and depend on xaw) if xaw is required. This way, if someone
10 removes xaw from USE, ebuild apps won't include xaw if they can help it. Hope
11 that clears things up,
