25 Hm, remove IMAGE. Anything else?

29 No objections from me to all of the above.

40 Given the long time it's been in limbo I doubt that this will be a
41 quick feature. (But I'll be glad if you convince me of the opposite.)

43 Other cheap stuff:
44
45 * Mandate GNU find (bug 384157)
46 * Add an EBUILD_PHASE_FUNC variable (bug 390765)
47 * usex: new "use" type helper (bug 382963)
48 * econf: append --disable-silent-rules (bug 379497)
