I think it would be fantastic if we could drop the crude workaround of adding the text of the readme.gentoo file into environment to sidestep the fact that the original design was buggy and stored it as an optional documentation file vulnerable to corruption as a side effect of default `docompress` handling, when its purpose was to be a pkg_postinst metadata file. -- Eli Schwartz
