I think that moving the data to the filename is probably a better
approach than semi- or repeat parsing, but I prefer preserving the
.ebuild extension, and think that eapi should be specified similarly
to ebuild revision, as a suffix. for instance:

app-foo/bar-1.0.0-r1.ebuild # EAPI0 (or the highest EAPI prior to the
new schema)
app-foo/bar-1.0.0-r1-e1.ebuild
app-foo/bar-1.0.0-r1-e99.ebuild
