Can anyone explain this:
[ebuild    U-] sys-kernel/pfeifer-sources-2.4.20.1_pre1 [2.4.20.2_pre4]

My current kernel is lolo-sources so I presume its trying to convert
"2.4.20.2_pre4" to "2.4.20.1_pre1" whick looks both a downgrade and
highly dubious?  On examining the ebuild, it might be that lolo sources
is now pfeifer, but where is this documented?  I originally went with
lolo sources due its i810 support when gentoo-sources didnt, maybe its
time to move back to gentoo-sources?  I think some detailed descriptions
in the gentoo docs about what kernel version is what is long overdue.

Also emerge --help and man emerge still shed no light on what the
various flags mean (e.g. what is the "-" in the "U-" ??)
