The whole point of PMS/EAPI is that we can rely on package managers
behaving reasonably for any input.  Any package managers, in any
version.

newest Portage version handle bad input.  Using old version?  Tough
luck.  Using another package manager?  Tough luck.  Not fitting
in narrow space of solutions currently hacked around?  Tough luck.
