I am trying to update my system, and it seemed like a good time to go
from the old php ports to the dev-lang ports.  But I'm having trouble
building php-4.4.1-r3.

I have masked php-5 and up, as I'm not quite ready to move to that yet.

When I try to emerge php-4.4.1-r3, it stops with this error:

QA Notice: USE Flag 'nis' not in IUSE for dev-lang/php-4.4.1-r3

I get the same error with php-5.0.5.

I don't have nis set as a use flag anywhere in my stuff, though, and I
cannot find it set for php in the profiles.

I have put "-nis" into package.use for php and I have tried removing nis
and setting "-nis" into /etc/make.conf, but nothing helps.

I don't find reference to this issue when I google, so that tells me
that something might be misconfigured in my system.  I try not to do
anything too wild, so I'm not sure what it might be.

If it makes a difference, I have copied my system into another partition
and I have chrooted into it.  This has worked fine for me in the past,
though, so it doesn't seem that would be the problem.

Any helpful advice would be appreciated.
