custom-cflags: Build with user-specified CFLAGS (unsupported)
as custom-cxxflags has been added (w/o discussion here)

I asked it some times ago [1].
I hope we can have custom-c{xx,}flags in global useflags soon

I find this description pretty content-free and hand-wavy. I usually
care to know what the concrete effect of a use flag is, to know if it's
something I want to enable, in terms of features provided and the
dependencies implied.
To that end, please allow me to suggest:
Cross-KDE support for file metadata indexing via nepomuk and soprano.
If you don't want to couple the message to those particular packages,
then maybe just reference the NEPOMUK project instead.
(Also, I note in passing the existing kde-base/pykde4 use.local.desc has
a tyop of Nemomuk.)

There was a period when qtiplot required qt4 emerged with qt3support USE flag. So, it had pkg_setup which checked this and produced an error it necessary. qt3support was not a USE flag of qtiplot. So, I agree, there seems to be no reasons to make it a global USE flag. Andrey -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

Ah, that's quite common -- a package FooBar is ported to Qt4, but it still uses some of the Qt4's Qt3support classes. This is handled by FooBar depending on qt4 being built with that particular USE flag, not a qt3support in for the FooBar package itself, though.
