From linux-mod.eclass: IUSE="" # don't put pcmcia here, rather in the ebuilds that actually support pcmcia The problem is, it then does: RDEPEND="virtual/modutils »···»···pcmcia? ( virtual/pcmcia )" DEPEND="sys-apps/sed »···»···pcmcia? ( virtual/pcmcia )" So the pcmcia flag gets pulled in invisibly anyway. This would be better done as a LINUX_MOD_NEEDS_PCMCIA option variable.
