I wonder if strict and stricter FEATURES are somehow hardwired to each other inside portage code, or whether they're considered separate entities? Anyway, you could try FEATURES="-strict -stricter" to see which way it works. If that won't work then the next step could be to play around with the QA_STRICT_* variables mentioned in make.conf man page (haven't tried, so don't know if they'll help either). -- Arttu V.
