I don't know if it's a good idea, in this case. After all, the current
masked version will be unmasked one day, and I may not need always the
bleeding-edge version (I'd rather use stable things, if they do the
job). But I always issue emerge -pv before emerging anything, so a
possible downgrade would be detected in advance.
