Interesting... I had almost the exact same experience earlier today. I
got svgalib to build on amd64 (by removing the internal lrmi build from
its src_compile), and wanted to test it with 'links' (didn't work).
The 'svga' option is use-masked, but I took a slightly different override
approach. My profile line in gentoo.bash is dynamically generated (so I
can use the same configs on amd64 and x86), but the resulting line is:
# all one line:
profiles = /usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/amd64/2008.0/desktop
/etc/paludis/profile-amd64
$ cat /etc/paludis/profile-amd64/use.mask
-svga
(From http://paludis.org/configuration/repositories/e.html:)
"""
profiles
A space separated list of directories to use as profiles. Later
entries override earlier entries. [...]
"""
Seemed slightly simpler configuration-wise (+1 file, +2 lines vs +2 files,
+3 lines), so thought I'd mention it.
Best,
