Yes, you are going to break systems if you do this change.  If you
really want to do this before we have a fixed gentoolkit to support it,
then put yourself in the tools-portage herd and handle all of the bugs
that arise out of the change.

I just did a new release of gentoolkit-0.3.0.5 with the fixes in them so
that you could do this change once it gets stable.
