   sys-libs/glibc ~amd64   
      
   #Use unstable 2.7-r2 until a later version gets stable

   Much depends on how you want to have things, but you should avoid using   
      
   ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~amd64 emerge something   
      
   This will cause problems for you when you have to do something like   
   revdep-rebuild, as the system can't build the packages, and the same if you   
   use --deep when you emerge.   
      
   If you want to use unstable, then better switch to unstable, see   
   make.conf.example
