I think Gmail (and alpine) pretty much do the right thing (except for

I've been doing a lot of --depclean lately, and I've run into something
odd. "emerge --depclean cross-avr/gcc" wants to remove all 3 versions, but
it's in my world file. On the other hand, "emerge --depclean" doesn't want
to remove any of them. I initially set this up with a crossdev that's now

Is there some approved way to unmask a USE flag that your profile masks?
(Maybe only for certain packages?) I need "multilib" for
cross-arm-elf/newlib, and x86 profiles have it masked.
(For that matter, arm profiles seem to also have it masked, despite at
least some arm devices having two ISAs)

net.wireless automagically starts when the interface "wireless" appears

I switched to udev-103 recently, and now when I boot I find that ipw3945d
is not getting started, which causes my wireless card to not appear at
all. "rmmod ipw3945; modprobe ipw3945" once the system has started works.
Any advice?

It seems like the current x86 versions are:
alsa-lib: 1.0.13
alsa-headers: 1.0.13
alsa-driver: 1.0.12
alsa-driver wants alsa-headers to match it; alsa-lib also wants
alsa-headers to match it (or be ahead of it). Is there something messed
