I'm not sure I'd call it a chuckle.  Other developers of Gentoo have left
with the same complaints, and Dan's defense sounds distinctly like Baghdad
Bob.  Unfortunately, Gentoo and Gentoo users will pay whatever penalties
there are for this little fracas.  OTOH, we may get a better system out of
it.  Deciding which one it is will be difficult, however.
