No, it's not needed for fcron at all, and I already explained why in
[1]. Progressing through [2-4] I thought the fcron issue might have
been fixed, but the virtual/editor discussion had started by then and I
decided I had nothing more to add. Again: fcron builds and works fine
without at all setting ./configure --with-editor= and the ebuild should
not set that option at all. Problem solved.

--with-editor in the ebuild and just let it default to /usr/bin/vi,
which is only used if your env doesn't have EDITOR set to something
useful)

explained that bug #65263 fixed the wrong problem)
[3] https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149376#c19 (where I
suggested setting it to something proper and available on hopefully
every system, like --with-editor=/bin/nano)

continued to argue this approach and CC'd bsd@ to get their view)
