No, but since it is provided by the ebuild, the ebuild should check that the target system is capable of supporting it. The qemu ebuild already spits out warnings about missing kernel options, not all of them essential, so why not this one too?

I think blocking / failing the ebuild is the wrong thing to do. IMHO warning ≠ failure -- Grant. . . . unix || die -- Grant. . . . unix || die
