I don't seen anything about it at bugs.gentoo.org;  you could file a
bug.  I'm not sure anyone would be motivated to patch it, though.  As
it is now, (well, AIUI) the USE flag just controls the
--enable-official-branding switch for compiling and the "Bon Echo" you
see is just an artifact of the way Mozilla ships its source code.

I think something other than "Iceweasel" would be preferable,
since Debian and GNU both have Iceweasel projects.
