1) You cannot define a total order on those names:
Is
   maa/moo-3-scm_bONECOOLFEATURE
 <
   maa/moo-3-scm_bOTHERCOOLFEATURE
 ?


2) It will break updating from the feature branch, once you installed:
  sys-devel/gcc-4.2.3_p20071127-scm_b${BRANCHNAME}-r1

and
  sys-devel/gcc-4.2.4

comes out, it'll update to that, regardless of the inclusion of 
${BRANCHNAME}'s feature.

Regards,
Robert
