Subject: [gentoo-dev] conversion of USE=nocxx to USE=cxx

1 now that we have USE=cxx, and base/make.defaults has USE=cxx, i'd like to
2 migrate gcc away from USE=nocxx.
3
4 since this can be a pickle, i'd propose toolchain.eclass grow the checks:
5 - use cxx && use nocxx && die
6 - use !cxx && use !nocxx && die
7
8 this way when i do cut over from USE=nocxx to USE=cxx, we don't end up with
9 users missing C++ compilers simply because they have old make.conf settings
10 that started out with:
11 USE="-* ..."
12
13 there are other ebuilds in the tree now that have USE=nocxx, but i'll take
14 care of converting them.
15 -mike
