How about we just leave them as local use flags and move on?  global
vs. local is more then just about number of packages using the flag.
It has more to do with, "Is this flag globally useful and relevant."
So far, I haven't seen a recently suggest local use flag that cries out
to be made global.

I think it encourages policy violations.

I know the policy, but sometimes upstream does not want user CFLAGS,
zsnes developers will remove support for Gentoo hosts from their bug
reports if i remove custom-cflags use and also mplayer.

What about making custom-cflags default in the base profile?
