not breaking the stable tree can be called being "overly

you have a quite broad definition of "breaking".
- clean slate emerge works before and after.
- adding a suggestion to use either the .la fixer scripts or
revdep-rebuild should be enough to have the system in a working state.
- the rough solution of removing all the .la files in the system works
for most use cases (that's my local solution)
So it isn't an earth shattering change like a nonfunctional libc in the
stable tree or a broken version of coreutils, please keep a bit of
perspective.
