Thanks for the reminder!  This is in fact mentioned in every output from
"emerge --depclean" and thus develops a high probability of being ignor-
ed ... :-)

So my script will keep "--deep" when "--update" is specified.   But what
about "--changed-deps"?   Can nobody on this list explain what it really
is or isn't good for, or when to use or not to use it?
