5 Replace is probably better. You can always manually append if you
6 want to, but it is much harder to remove unless portage has logic to
7 handle a inverse of every option and processing them in order (ie
8 --with-bdeps=y --with-bdeps=n works out to a no, and vice-versa). If
9 you just replace it you'll eliminate a bunch of issues.
