There's one thing I don't find addressed yet:
When some patch[1] necessary for some (prefix-) platform has to touch
configure.ac or Makefile.am, rendering eautoreconf mandatory on
*each* platform, there's no way to tell xorg-2_reconf_source() to
do the eautoreconf instead of elibtoolize *unconditionally*.
We had to have libXaw.ebuild do the eautoreconf unconditionally[2] after
x-modular_src_unpack() - which just did elibtoolize on some platforms,
causing elibtoolize to get run twice, resulting in bug#232820 [3].
Even if libXaw doesn't need those patches any more it seems,
there's no reason such patches won't become necessary again.

PS: Just a suggestion what an ebuild could do in this case:
src_prepare() {
xorg-2_src_prepare --force-eautoreconf
}
