Beats me. I run a stable system, so probably it just needed the right combination of packages to stabilize. Or maybe it was the change in xorg-2.eclass that triggered it. Or maybe no one else has noticed that there's a useless package on his system (that will be stranded until all of the affected packages get upgrades/revisions) and tried to remove it. Or maybe everyone has set USE="-gentoo-dev" for portage to avoid this perpetual clown show. Or... what difference does it make? It already took me 100x longer to figure out what went wrong than it would have taken to make the revisions in the first place. I don't want to waste any more. I'm still tracking down more packages that need to be rebuilt by hand because RDEPEND was changed in an eclass too.
