+1 to this. I was going to suggest something similar.

At least, because I'm still thinking in a view other than "steam", and
anticipating "Maybe we're going to do more of this"

If more than one binary application need more than one debian hack,
stuffing all the debian hacks in a special prefix that everyone can use
without polluting the main gentoo stuff is an advantage.

( And the separate dir makes it clear what the library is for and why
its there if anyone is trying to weed out some library problem that
still manages to happen despite our attempts )
