4 Does "dirty portage-specific hack" mean "That's my bulletproof solution for

8 And I discourage saying "doesn't work" w/o saying what is specifically not
9 working esp. if the goal, at the first glance, is reached. It leads nowhere

11 better if you for example don't have time to give the details.
