Maybe it is time to setup a patch tracking system like Debian[1]?

Sometimes it is really hard to understand what patches are applied by
an ebuild (especially when all the
build process is handled by an eclass) and/or when people keep a
separate .tar.* with all the patches. Debian
makes is so much easier to see what patches each package contains.
