i originally added it to eutils eclass and only called it in some ebuilds
because people were against lettings users patch anything at all (due to the
maintenance burden). the trade off was that maintainers could add it to their
ebuilds explicitly when they were ok with supporting it. so that quieted the
opposition while letting it proliferate throughout the tree. now we're at the
point of it being fairly common in the tree, so moving it somewhere more
central would probably be a good thing.
