4 Yes. The ebuild should respect your CFLAGS unless there is a USE flag
5 to enable/disable them. The counter to this is when a package won't
6 build without specific flags, then disregarding the user is okay.
7 Since this is over-optimising (rather than under-), this probably
8 isn't the case.

10 File a minor bug, and if you're super-interested, please take a look
11 at ebuild writing. I get the feeling that maintaining calibre is a bit
12 messy, I'm sure that they'd appreciate the help.
