I think that your flavour for new version is right idea. 100% agree. But when "pre" version was stabilized, is better allow still downgrade to last stable version (stay in portage). View file 250MB (log file) - key "F3" and then key "End" mc-4.6.1-r4 - without delay mc-4.7pre1 - about 30-50 seconds (cpu max usage) mc-4.7pre3 - about 7-10 seconds (cpu max usage) Roadmap 29/10/2009 - mc-4.7pre4 - I'll try after release and refer here
