| The problem with that is that putting together a patchset such as -love requires a lot more work than just applying some patches on top of -mm. Usually some hunks fail, and they have to be fixed by hand. You'd need a different patch for feature X depending on whether or not you were using feature Y. |

say | Quote: | | USE="staircase reiser4" emerge superduper-sources |
or something like that |
i believe someone implemented this into xx-sources. But I really can't remember. |
