For what it's worth, I started emerge -e system quite some time ago.  It
stops about 1/2 way through on glib.  Apparently this is common.   I started
it up again as "emerge -e system --skipfirst".  How bad of an idea was
that?  I think about 200 out of about 350 pkgs have been rebuilt.

I'll halt this and rebuild dbus again.  Etc/

It does affect firefox 2 also.  All users except root.  All gecko browsers,
I guess (all firefox, and epiphany---didnt' try galeon).

 I don't qet it about preserved-libs.  THerefore I haven't done anything
about any of the messages.  I don't understand the messages, exactly what
would happen?  Would I be building the same app with the same old lib or
with the new lib?  I need to find something in the docs, but haven't seen
anything yet.

Thank you for the advice,
