Ok, so to summarize:

a) +1 for a USE flag instead of KERNEL/ELIBC (that's 4 in favour, 2
against i think?)

b) -1 for making it global right now pending resolution of logistics
for the profiles/base/use.mask entry,

c) rejection for the proposed ebuild patches pending a toolkit
refactoring to be determined later.


B and C make most of this thread pretty well moot, I guess, but
following A, can we decide that USE="winapi" could be a good flag
name?  If nobody objects I'll use that when leio and I work on the
refactoring of gtk+ and likely try to use local flags somehow for now.
