PMS does document reality: FEATURES can't be used by ebuilds since its
values aren't reliable. Tests have to be made for the thing that
actually causes the problem, not a variable that indicates that the
user requested but may not have been given the thing that causes the
problem.

But then, we've had this discussion before, and you already know that,
so you're just trying to stir up trouble again.
