daemon - Build polkitd in addition to libpolkit. Those using sys-apps/dbus-broker may wish to disable this flag.
duktape - Use dev-lang/duktape instead of dev-lang/spidermonkey as JavaScript engine
examples - Install examples, usually source code
gtk - Add support for x11-libs/gtk+ (The GIMP Toolkit)
introspection - Add support for GObject based introspection
kde - Add support for software made by KDE, a free software community
pam - Add support for PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) - DANGEROUS to arbitrarily flip
selinux - !!internal use only!! Security Enhanced Linux support, this must be set by the selinux profile or breakage will occur
systemd - Use sys-apps/systemd for session tracking
test - Enable dependencies and/or preparations necessary to run tests (usually controlled by FEATURES=test but can be toggled independently)
