USE flags

berkdb - Add support for sys-libs/db (Berkeley DB for MySQL)
bluetooth - Build Bluetooth protocol support in socket module
bootstrap - !!internal use only!! DO NOT SET THIS FLAG YOURSELF!, used during original system bootstrapping [make stage2]
build - !!internal use only!! DO NOT SET THIS FLAG YOURSELF!, used for creating build images and the first half of bootstrapping [make stage1]
cxx - Build support for C++ (bindings, extra libraries, code generation, ...)
doc - Add extra documentation (API, Javadoc, etc). It is recommended to enable per package instead of globally
elibc_uclibc - ELIBC setting for systems that use the uClibc C library
examples - Install examples, usually source code

hardened - Activate default security enhancements for toolchain (gcc, glibc, binutils)
ipv6 - Add support for IP version 6
libressl - Use dev-libs/libressl instead of dev-libs/openssl when applicable (see also the ssl useflag)
ncurses - Add ncurses support (console display library)
readline - Enable support for libreadline, a GNU line-editing library that almost everyone wants
sqlite - Add support for sqlite - embedded sql database
ssl - Add support for SSL/TLS connections (Secure Socket Layer / Transport Layer Security)
