13 Does portage 2.1 have preserve-libs? If not, pretty please, readd the ~sparc-
14 fbsd and ~x86-fbsd keywords. We unmasked portage 2.2 a while ago because we
15 relied on preserve-libs for the upgrades. Esp. one where libc.so.6 becomes
16 libc.so.7... without preserve-libs its almost impossible to upgrade from one
17 release to another one without a full reinstall.
