10 The NEW and OLD variables have no meaning. USE have been put there because any
11 USE_EXPAND flags found in IUSE are represented separately. For example:
12
13 [ebuild R ] x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r6 USE="-bitmap-fonts cjk -debug
14 -dlloader -dmx -doc font-server -insecure-drivers -ipv6 -minimal -nls -nocxx
15 opengl -pam -sdk -static truetype-fonts -type1-fonts -xprint xv"
16 INPUT_DEVICES="-synaptics -wacom" 44,520 kB
17
18 I doubt that the NEW and OLD would really be visible in the --verbose output
19 in the general case anyway. How about just making added flags green to match
20 the output of changed flags?
