Add another plus.

I run Gentoo on a couple of machines, it's great, but not for Myth, Gentoo's 
great strength is its flexibility, but that leads to too much variation to  
make consistent Myth installs.

I initially ran Myth on Gentoo, but have since concluded that the specialized 
distros make Myth easier.
