This compiles and works on ~x86-fbsd. I am requesting the keyword be added. One note: if python is not compiled with threads (USE flag), it will not work, but python without threads will also break other things, like equery. Note that without specifying "threads" explicitly, python-2.4.4-r4 compiles with threads (good), however python-2.4.4-r2 did not. Reproducible: Always
Keyworded, thanks.
Keyword reverted for tests failure, see bug #179659.
Re-keyworded, as bug #179659 has been resolved.
