8 Come to think of it portage-2.1_NEXT will require >=pax-utils-0.1.10
9 (auto fixing evil rpaths) which has support for '*.a' files now
10 (spanky rules).
11 We can probably obsolete the need to call 'file' all together now in

14 Heres a patch also which should help you track down offending programs
15 as they occur. should catch all cases of 'install -s' also.
