I'm using a system with --usepkgonly set in EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS. On this system, when I run revdep-rebuild, it doesn't care of this flag. revdep-rebuild should reflect this option.

We purposely ignore EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS. If you want to have revdep-rebuild use that flag then add it to the command line. For example: revdep-rebuild --verbose -- --usepkgonly However, reinstalling a binary package will not fix the linkage problems unless the package itself was rebuilt by another system,

As a side note, the "--jobs" and "--load-average" emerge options surely won't affect the functionality, and are becoming more useful on today's machines. Maybe this could be addressed in future.
