I agree that setting about anything on the command line is a bad

But it doesn't tell you if setting the flag solves the problem,
because it doesn't attempt to emerge the package that failed. As a
test it fails.
Then I guess your mileage may vary then.
Oh no. Emerging one package to see how another package emerges will give
exactly the same result every time, not an inch of variation :(

You're forgetting about what the cosmic rays, solar flares and quarks clear
