If we want to handle every possible screwup, including stray EAPI
assignments inside inherited eclasses, we still need to compare the
probed value to the value that's obtained from bash.

I guess you're hinting at using a non-bash ebuild format? Even if in
that case, the the package manager should simply use whatever
interpreter is appropriate for the probed EAPI. So, if EAPI 7 is a
posix-shell format, and the probed EAPI is 7, then the package manager
should source the ebuild with it's posix-shell instead of bash. If the
probed EAPI is not a supported EAPI, then it should skip the sourcing
entirely, and report the ebuild as having an unsupported EAPI.
