The point is to make pkgcore a better package manager by getting the

No, you aren't talking, you are babbling about undefined flaws that
nobody can evaluate, for which you aren't providing a way to
reproduce it and possibly doesn't exist.

So in your opinion, the pkgcore maintainers should just say "Screw it,
it was just Ciaran who said that." and move on?
He doesn't point any issue in particular.
And that wasn't the point. He pointed out, that there is an issue, that
hasn't been caught because of missing tests.
Why is "Create tests for EAPI=1 stuff." not a way to describe how to
reproduce a problem?
because EAPI1 isn't specified completely so you don't have a large field
to cover but you also do not know the bounds of it.
It really doesn't matter how it is specified. You have an implementation
of it and should make sure, that this implementation works.
