Who said that there would be loss of functionality? |

I'm just suggesting a new config while supporting the old one. |
| 21 |
old config requires bash - and as Gentoo/Linux installed /bin/sh as |
| 22 |
symlink to bash it will still work. |

Obviously there would be some sort of setting to handle this. |

At this point I'm favouring a USE flag which controls which net scripts |
| 26 |
get installed. |
