Nginx 0.6.31 ebuild for use with Gentoo and derivate distributions is now available at the "connectical-contrib" overlay [1], with the following improvements over the official Gentoo packaging:

- USE=python enables building Manlio's WSGI module [2]. - USE=scgi enables building Manlio's SCGI module (use with care!) - USE=addition enables building the bundled "addition" module - USE=perftools enables building the bundled Google perftools module - USE=gzip-static enables building the bundled precompression module

The following patched are applied when building:

- Escaping of non-printable characters in log files [4]. - Use "X-Forwarded-Host" instead of "Host" when proxying requests [5] - Fix stack overflow because of recursive calls [6]

Comments are welcome. Enjoy!
