 DESCRIPTION="Based on the ${ECLASS} eclass"
 
+# ecpu_check
+# Usage:
+#
+# ecpu_check array_of_cpu_flags
+#
+# array_of_cpu_flags - An array of cpu flags to check against USE flags
+#
+# Checks user USE related cpu flags against /proc/cpuinfo.  If user enables a
+# cpu flag that is not supported in their processor flags, it will warn the
+# user if CROSSCOMPILE is not set to 1 ( because cross compile users are
+# obviously using different cpu flags than their own cpu ).  Examples:
+#
+# CPU_FLAGS=(mmx mmx2 sse sse2)
+# ecpu_check CPU_FLAGS
