Masked x11-misc/Xautoconfig in package.mask, because there is no stable XFree86-ebuild anymore for PowerPC. Please use xeasyconfig for X.org.

Hansmi, are you sure this is the correct thing?  I know when I set up Xorg, I used Xautoconfig and NOT Xeasyconf.  I know for a fact that Method did as well.

Upps, looks like i had a chaos. I'm sorry for that. Changed package.mask accordingly. Please close this bug if you agree.
