I would really prefer you not use the term QA again, seeing as how
you're twisting its meaning to fit your own views.

Now, I would like for you to explain to me how exactly I could not break
the tree by using a versioned eclass?  Will this not still allow me to
commit a toolchain-1.3.eclass and have glibc inherit it and it still be
broken?  Will it be any harder to revert the changes to the ebuild to
change the inheritance than it would be to restore an older ebuild from
CVS that still uses the older eclass?  Will it make things easier in
fixing bugs in the eclass itself?  If my 1.3 version of the eclass is
broken, do I have to make a 1.4 version and touch every ebuild that
inherited 1.3 just to fix a typo?

Because you know... we just haven't been doing any QA up until now on
anything we've been committing... *sigh*
