Thanks Kevin. I've been doing that lately before emerging a new package. I'll be using it before I emerge any packages and turning off any flags that are reported that aren't needed (like aRts - it's a server, so doesn't need sound support).
But thanks for the reminder - made me think about the emerge system you have to do early in the install process... should probably make that "emerge system -pv" first, and adjust the flags accordingly.

You might also find that emerge -vp world is even more telling, since it'll tell you which flags are being used for the various packages.
