Description haarp 2016-08-22 07:55:21 UTC 
According to my own experiences and https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-7949962.html#7949962, nvidia-drivers fails to compile with TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS set due to access violations.

Example:

 * ACCESS DENIED:  fopen_wr:     /usr/src/linux-4.7.2-gentoo/nv-frontend.d
/var/tmp/portage/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-367.27/work/kernel/nvidia/nv-frontend.c:16:0: fatal error: opening dependency file nv-frontend.d: Permission denied
 
 ^
compilation terminated.


The ebuild should probably check for it.
