This has caused dependency resolution problems in the past. The PMS
implies a new revision, the council said make a new revision, and the
devmanual already says make a new revision. Documenting this behavior
might make people feel better about ignoring all of that, but your lack
of guilt doesn't do me any good when portage starts crashing.
