Patch to fix the document

Currently http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=2&chap=3 refers to the following line for listing the portage features:
$ emerge --info | grep FEATURES

Since variables like CALLIGRA_FEATURES exist the USe are shown too. Instead something like this should be used:
emerge --info | egrep ^FEATURES=

Attached is a patch to fix this.
