You are correct that that comment was made. However, later in the bug, multiple folks made the observation that /etc is not the place for a shell library, and there was no disagreement to that [1]. So the way I read it we convinced vapier otherwise.
Also, the gentoo-functions.sh package went through several iterations before it was stabled, and there were no complaints. William [1] https://bugs.gentoo.org/373219
