Very cool! |

There is one major regression from the previous implementation: it is |
| 26 |
twice as slow, at least on my system. You might want to try some |
| 27 |
profiling to track this down. |

In addition, I suspect that printing during the ebuild-processing phase |
| 30 |
(so printing starts earlier) as the previous implementation does would |
| 31 |
give the impression of speed. |
