While we're on the subject of administration, I have a question about

Is this a known issue with a "fix" coming or is this "by design" (which
seems shockingly short-sighted). I searched bugs.gentoo.org for quite a
while and didn't see anything like this amongst the bajillion other
portage bugs, so I added a new one:

compiles fine but when
