So far, I've found the sub slots to be more of a pain in the ass than
helpful.

They get in the way of things like automated 'emerge --sync;emerge -upvDN',
since portage craps out complaining about the subslots rather than showing
the list of what need to be built.

Perhaps that is just an implementation detail to be worked out, but for now
they haven't done anything helpful here.
