Well, the reasons for me preferring to not allow *new* ebuilds to use
eapi1 is to try to move to use things like, for example,
src_prepare/src_configure phases. I guess that phases were included for
some "technical" reasons and, then, I think we should try to use them if
possible install of still adding NEW ebuilds using old eapi0/1 way of
doing things
