I just updated to the latest version of portage and when I check what
packages I need, by doing an emerge -up world, I get a few lines like
the following.

> [blocks B    ] <dev-perl/ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.05-r6 (from pkg 
> dev-lang/perl-5.8.0-r12)

What are blocks?  Are these packages that are blocked by devs because they may 
(or do) have issues?  This is the first I've seen this so I thought I'd ask around
just to be safe.

Thanks,
Jason Giangrande
