As R Hill already pointed out, WONTFIX means that the *bug* will never
be fixed. Fixing the *ebuild* would fix the bug, so WONTFIX isn't the
right keyword. Following your logic, all bugs dealing with ebuild should
be marked WONTFIX; in the ebuild's current state the bug wont be fixed.
Its just not a logical argument.

What Ciaran is actually doing is assigning the bug back to the person
that submitted the ebuild. So ASSIGNED or something new like
CONTRIB_ASSIGNED would be appropriate.
