What do you and Ryan think about naming the suggested file

And hard to revert. Sparc did drop a lot of keywords lately, by removing
itself from STAB
not saying that it doesn't hurt in some places, but it's
manageable, as is living on arches with stable core and very few stable
leave packages, like I've been doing on sparc, ppc and arm.)

Hi,
do you need udevd in runlevel boot at all (for sysvinit)?

an initrd to load needed modules to mount the root filesystem.

Um, what happend to the policy to not f*** around with stable ebuilds?
I see a violation of this rule at least on 2.13-r4, which leads to
useless rebuilds on `emerge -avuND world` on every single gentoo
install world-wide.
Please don't do that.
ebuild work (yes, you caught me
actually doing something).
now `cvs diff` no longer works, how can i track down my local changes?
besides diffing against git tree, brain memory aka shell history and
