That doesn't work, for reasons already stated. |

If I set USE="-udev" in my make.conf, I don't get the same behavior that |
| 11 |
I would if you left the default alone. Specifically, setting USE="-udev" |
| 12 |
in make.conf will disable udev support in all packages that have |
| 13 |
IUSE="+udev", whereas now they are built WITH udev support. This causes |
| 14 |
severe breakage in some cases, and there's no way for me (or anyone |
| 15 |
else) to regain the existing behavior once you turn the flag on by default. |

Yeah I'd love to except that you're proposing we add it to the "linux" |
| 21 |
profile, and it can't be overridden in a sub-profile for the same reason |
| 22 |
it can't be overridden in make.conf. |
