I have not been following this thread but why do you have this setting?
There may be some valid reasons for it, but if you don't know the implications
or wont remember it when shit like this happens then it's really a bad idea.

At one stage (long, long ago) it was a recommended setting (if I remember correctly)

# grep snort /etc/portage/package.use
net-analyser/snort              active-response flexresp3 gre mpls
That's a typo in the category name, it's supposed to be: net-analyzer

Ahhh the stupid US/Oz spelling differences, looks right to spelling checker, doesn't mean its right to work :P

# emerge -av snort

[ebuild R ~] net-analyzer/snort-2.9.7.5::gentoo USE="active-response flexresp3 gre mpls non-ether-decoders normalizer perfprofiling ppm react targetbased threads -control-socket -debug -file-inspect -high-availability -inline-init-failopen -large-pcap-64bit -linux-smp-stats -reload-error-restart (-selinux) -shared-rep -side-channel -sourcefire -static" 0 KiB

    Maybe that looks a bit better :/

    I use ufed for "use-flag" modification

USE="-*"

Thats interesting, I don't believe it has always said "Never enable any flags other than those specified in make.conf"

I'm sure the last time I read it was something vastly different, it was enabling something, but yes, it was long ago....
