The patch looks correct. However, I think it's arguable that the existing portage behavior makes more sense that what PMS dictates, because why should USE_EXPAND have any effect on a package which doesn't declare the corresponding flags in IUSE? Anyway, given the invasive nature of the proposed change, it's probably a good idea to have the council weigh in on this. -- Thanks, Zac
