As far as I'm aware Gentoo policy does not prevent somebody from
re-implementing a package that is already in Gentoo.  Obviously it
could get pretty confusing if that happened.

IMO it isn't really worth worrying about, because right now the main
limitation seems to be a lack of people working on projects, not 25
devs who each want to re-implement go their own way...
