Well, I would agree with you, if glsa-check ever offered to fix
2.14.90.0.8-r1.
However, it only offers to fix
Checking GLSA 200506-01
The following updates will be performed for this GLSA:
sys-devel/binutils-2.16-r1 (2.16.1)
which it has already re-emerged twice, and yet still reports the same
vulnerability-- and more importantly, the exact same fix.
