I wonder why the affected package (eselect-opengl) couldn't run
lafilefixer itself. It's mandatory for all users, and would save a lot
of frustration.

And I think we're doing something similar with gcc (fix_libtool_files.sh
seems to run automatically on gcc upgrade). Earlier it wasn't automatic,
and it was a bit of pain (a lot more for inexperienced users, needlessly).

Long story short: if something must be done and system can do it
automatically and perfectly, why should we require the user to do it
manually?

Additional benefit: less bugs reported (I'm sure some people are going
to miss the announcement, or read it without understanding).
