I have no problem with this, other than: the fact that it may create an incompatible switch-over point for gentoo users, and the unwary may be expecting for her libraries, built on gentoo, could be usable on other (gasp!) FreeBSD (-like) systems, and also that GNU/FreeBSD distributions other than gentoo (if there are any) should not be discriminated against. At least with GNU/Linux, the vendor field is completely useless -- what about spin-offs of Gentoo for example, what do they use? What do the others think?
