Redundant is where the package is still available but the /etc/portage.*
entry is no longer needed. e.g. you have "dev-lib/foobar-1.1 ~x86" in
package.keyworkd but it is now stable.


Btw: eix-test-obsolete can not check for obsolete use-flags at the

flagedit will warn if you have obsolete flags in /etc/portage
or /etc/make.conf.
