Hi Lucian,

I don't think I've responded to you about this - sorry!  I just changed 
mail clients twice recently, so your email got unmarked.

Thanks, but unfortunately my sandbox is in a state of flux at the 
moment, so a diff would be quite difficult for me to use.  Are you able 
to tar up the actual ebuild files that you've changed, and I can diff 
them when I have a more-stable set of ebuilds?

For svn access, you can ask on the synce-devel mailing list.  (I can't 
actually provide it for you!)  But go for it, if you think you're able. 
  If you know a bit about repoman and EAPI's then I think you know enough!
