...yet. Past Portage releases don't have it. Future Portage releases may
not. Other package managers don't. Using it at all is to intentionally
screw around with things that ebuilds should not know or need to, is
asking for trouble, and will have a certain group on your back as soon
as they find out (not just the paludis developers either). Especially so
when a correct solution has already been posted in this thread.
