Description Gavin Pryke 2012-01-02 16:32:59 UTC 
Reading ebuild.5 under the section REQUIRED_USE, there could be a possible error in the expression syntax. It seems a little strange there is two lines with duplicate behaviour but differing expression, I'm not sure of the intended functionality so please see the attached patch.

Reproducible: Always
