I was hoping that die() called in pkg_prerm would have a similar effect as pressing Ctrl-C when portage is doing it's countdown thing before you "emerge -C" package. Basically, to stop what it's doing, and to leave the package installed. If the uninstall was part of an upgrade, the corresponding installation (of the new version) would also fail.
