14 It does unless you set the -ncurses flag.
15 You don't need to specify abi_x86_32 for grub because it's 32bit only but it
16 does depend on >=sys-libs/ncurses-5.9-r3[abi_x86_32(-)].

18 It doesn't need a 32 bit gcc though, only multilib enabled gcc and I think
19 that's always the case on gentoo cause the ebuild doesn't have either multilib
20 or abi_x86_32 flags.
