I haven't tried that.  Your suggestion made me think of something to 
look at tho.  I checked the logs since it records what is being done and 
the options.  I noticed this:

1274924669:  *** emerge --with-bdeps --ask --verbose --buildpkg 
seamonkey gkrellm hddtemp kbackup k3b tkdvd myspell-en screen uptimed

So, emerge picks up on the others but not that one.  I then moved it 
from one section in make.conf and put it in the other.  Now it sees the 
option.  I guess it was in the wrong place.  For the record, I had it in 
FEATURES and moved it to the EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS.  I guess the last one 
is where it is supposed to be.  I may have copied it to the wrong place 
since portage would never move things in make.conf.  I need better 
glasses.  lol  Funny that emerge didn't print a error tho.

Thanks for shining a light in the dark tunnel.
