In the future I'd suggest posting it on bugszilla anyway, not everyone
who could ascertain if it's a bug reads this list.  If it's not a bug it
will be marked as such, no harm, no foul.  Some developers utilize
bugs.gentoo.org as their communications channel to users ( along with
IRC of course ) and aren't subscribed to many lists.
