If you do decide to start using the test feature, i've been using bug 
#73031 is a tracker for system packages (that is, packages included in 
'emerge system', not packages in category sys-...).  For world packages, 
you might get a thanks or you might get cussed at and your bug closed as 
invalid, depending on the maintainer.  Best to include patches.  ;P
