Agreed ;-)

I'm afraid we should add 'inherit eutils' because though epatch is now
integrated into unstable version of portage, stable version of portage
(2.0.48-r5) doesn't have this functionality.  I came across the
problem in http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23131#c11 and found
we need 'inherit eutils' for stable.

Anyhow, some of the ebuilds seem to use epatch without 'inherit
eutils' (and I guess they will fail to compile properly).  I counted
that sort of ebuild using small sh script and it says 332 ebuilds use
epatch without declairing 'inherit eutlis' ;-( Well, I included both
stable and unstable ebuilds, but at least for stable we need to write
'inherit epatch' at this moment.

cf. here is the list of such ebuilds:
