Fair point, but that would mean to remember to adjust this line once the 
eclass gets support for EAPI 9.

It appears that bash does the right thing:

$ if [[ "eapi-future" -gt 8 ]]; then echo "is greater than 8"; else echo 
"is NOT greater than 8"; fi
is NOT greater than 8

even considering

$ if [[ "9-eapi-future" -gt 8 ]]; then echo "is greater than 8"; else 
echo "is NOT greater than 8"; fi
is greater than 8

which would be fine.

Although I prefer the current approach, it is not a hill to die on for me.
