Unfortunately, since you don't care about implementing EAPIs
correctly, I have to worry about it. Kinda important to make sure that
PMS is universal, you know...

Er, no, they aren't. They're an entirely different model. It's good to
see you're trying to learn how to be a better programmer by avidly
reading everything I write, but please pay more attention. Confusing
generators and repositories is about on par with confusing a spoon and
an apple pie.

Ah, but I have unit tests, so I can be confident when I say that we're
correctly implementing the EAPI 1 changes. Unlike you, I don't have
such a high degree of confidence in Paludis contributors' (including
myself) abilities to write perfect code the first time that I let
changes go through without testing to ensure that they work.
