Plus, I'm enthusiastically using the still fairly new "source xyzfile"
functionality in portage to break out my portage config into various
modules (use, fs, net, etc).  My make.conf itself is simply a collection
of several "source" lines.  If whatever is brokenly assuming it can
collect such info from make.conf is sourcing the file using bash, or if it
too understands the source directive, no problem, but if not, it could be
a serious problem!

FWIW, I've experienced no issues here. (I don't use distcc, so that
already mentioned issue doesn't affect me.)
