has_version only returns 0 or 1 depending whether the package is installed or

however that alone won't solve the problem.
That's all that's really needed since all you'd care about in this instance is the existance of one of 2 or 3 major versions. Just look for >=sys-libs-4.0 then 3.0 and so-on, compiling for the first one you find.
Read about best_version in the ebuild(5) manual page. After you're done with
that, read about the versionator eclass in the versionator.eclass(5) manual
page (may have to emerge portage-manpages). You'll probably have to use a
combination of both to do what you're trying to achieve.
