So what happened to the 'hvm' USE flag of the "xen-tools" package?
http://gentoobrowse.randomdan.homeip.net/package/app-emulation/xen-tools
says there is such a flag. However:
moonflo ~ # equery uses xen-tools
[ Legend : U - final flag setting for installation]
[ : I - package is installed with flag ]
[ Colors : set, unset ]
* Found these USE flags for app-emulation/xen-tools-4.5.1-r1:

- - api : Build the C libxenapi bindings
- - custom-cflags : Build with user-specified CFLAGS
(unsupported)
- - debug : Enable extra debug codepaths, like
asserts and extra output. If you want to get meaningful backtraces see
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Quality_Assurance/Backtraces
- - doc : Add extra documentation (API, Javadoc,
etc). It is recommended to enable per package instead of globally
- - flask : Enable the Flask XSM module from NSA
- - ovmf : Enable support to boot UEFI guest vm,
needed by hvm
+ + pam : Enable pam support
- - pygrub : Install the pygrub boot loader
- - python : Add optional support/bindings for the
Python language
+ + python_targets_python2_7 : Build with Python 2.7

console in an app-misc/screen session

libraries as well

bundled one

the bundled one

So there is no such flag. Apparently my installation is missing
'hvmloader', and I'm guessing that I would have that if I could enable
the 'hmv' USE flag.
How do I enable a USE flag that doesn't seem to exist?
You don't enable a USE flag that does not exist. How could you? It's not
there.
Have all hardware virtualization capabilities been removed from xen in
Gentoo?
