I've been working with barry and it works perfectly fine without libopensync
(guess what the opensync USE flag does). So don't touch it.

Hey, here's an idea.  Before you go making big masks like this for packages
several people depend on, maybe try looking for a maintainer.  I would have
looked at this long ago if someone had simply said "Hey, opensync needs some
lovin".  At least half of the listed bugs are either five-minute fixes or not
grounds for removal (seriously, there's three duplicates, a svn ebuild, and
maintainer-wanted bug).
