9 Nope, nor equery b. I just can't understand where it came from. I'm pretty
10 sure I didn't do it. Does anything need reinitialising after an emerge --sync
11 using git? Google only showed where one user also had this file and it was
12 being called after a sync; no trace of what it's for though.

20 I don't think it's a matter of syntax; I couldn't find anything resembling
21 --reinitialize in any likely man page, including man q.

23 I'll just delete it and see what happens.
