More and more people provide build logs when filing bug reports, but still fail to provide their `emerge --info' output. Asking and waiting for it usually delays bug reports being properly assigned.

Having `emerge --info' in the build log could be tremendously useful in general, as it allows developers to more easily compare differing build output on a similarly configured system (or the same system with slightly updated system packages).

I would also like to get this solved finally :)

Thanks
