so you'd rather stick with a known crappy/inconsistent methodology then move 
in the proper direction ?

this debug-build FEATURES is the proper direction

bashrc hacks can add insert FEATURES on a per package basis until proper 
portage support is in place, but unlike the previous bashrc suggestion, this 
is a stop gap, not the correct, solution

i'm willing to forgo this (imo) minor aspect in favor of cutting the 
unreliable USE=debug from the tree
