8 | To solve this issue it would have to be an on-by-default flag, i.e.
9 | 'noxserver'. I know some people are strongly against nofoo flags.

11 Or, you could just activate it in the base profile.

15 x11-base/xorg-libs. Or an
16 | eclass to the same effect. This would be easily forgotten in new
17 ebuilds, and
