I've submitted what I hope is fix for the buffer overflow problem to bug
337059. Will that be sufficient to remove the block on stabiliz
rather the user get too many
elog messages than not enough, since I feel that a lot of people skip
over them anyway and so the "only display once" method makes it far
too easy for important messages to get lost in the shuffle.

elf will handle
all of the corner cases that base_src_prepare covers. The new patching
code essentially consists of [[ ${PATCHES[@]} ]] && epatch
"${PATCHES[@]}"; epatch_user. As for the reason for the change, the
request and rationale can be seen in the first bug that I linked in
mobile device running Gentoo, so
we would be very appreciative if community members would help us by
testing and reporting bugs to us. To install it, add the overlay
(layman -a kde) and emerge all of the packages in the kde-active category.

change concurrent with a news item? Or even just do that in the ebuild
rather than in the actual sources. I don't think Debian will keel over
and die if it takes a little extra time for the change to go through,
and it beats a ton of broken systems.

which have low activity. To play things safe, please revbump and file

Would it be feasible to add a repoman check for situations like this,
where the behavior of a phase is dependent on inherit order? If so, it
seems reasonable to me to require explicit calls to eclass functions in
these cases to make it clear what's being called when.
