dev-embedded/sdcc has the useflag 'boehmgc' while media-gfx/asymptote has 'boehm-gc'. These should probably be unified. Also, use.local.desc mentions 'boehmgc' as a useflag for dev-db/monetdb which does not exist.
$ euses boehm dev-db/monetdb:boehmgc - enables Boehm Garbage Collector for XQuery dev-embedded/sdcc:boehmgc - Enable Hans Boehm's garbage collector media-gfx/asymptote:boehm-gc - Enables using the Boehm-Demers-Weiser conservative garbage collector The first package (dev-db/monetdb) appears to have been removed two weeks ago. As for the others, not only the spelling but also the meaning seems different. CC'ing maintainers... asymptote is without a maintainer (not CC'ing maintainer-needed@gentoo.org) dev-embedded@gentoo.org for dev-embedded/sdcc.

I'll be happy to change sdcc if needed, we just have to decide which one we want. Denis.

I think one is as good as the other. ;-) However, asymptote's use is older: revision 1.2606 date: 2007-02-18 12:54:07 +0100; author: centic; state: Exp; lines: +3 -1; c ommitid: 91545d83e424567; Add local use flags boehm-gc and gsl for media-gfx/asymptote, see Bug 167405. revision 1.3501 date: 2008-04-20 19:52:24 +0200; author: calchan; state: Exp; lines: +2 -1; commitid: 6d99480b82c24567; Added local use flag 'boehmgc' for dev-embedded/sdcc.
OK, I fixed sdcc. Closing this. Denis.
