As part of the Portage system, Gentoo users are able to specify their CFLAGS in a file which is exported to the environment in which the program is configured, built and installed. Is it possible to have Xen inherit these CFLAGS as a base, and then modify them as required? Part of the enthusiasm over Gentoo is the ability to customise and optimise the applications.
