Hmm?  I don't see how this would break anything... unless you mean that 
exporting the dummy function would overwrite one that actually does something 
important, but that's easily worked around by not exporting it until the 
ebuilds are fixed, as far as I can tell.  In any case, not doing anything 
until the new eclass is committed is going to break ebuilds until they're 
updated to call the new function, whether stable or ~arch.
