Emerge did this, when confcache was installed and FEATURES=confcache was |
| 14 |
set. But I guess this only works well with once cache file per package, |
| 15 |
not with a global cache that is being used during all emerges. |

The configure script tests for lots of features, each test has a name. But |
| 17 |
there is no global naming scheme, so tests for different features can have |
| 18 |
the same name in different packages. I think this is why it did not work |
| 19 |
so well. |
