Every time this comes up we explain why. Please refer to those threads for=
the
complete story.
In short:
Toolchain packages, for better or worse, are built by eclass. We are not
forward-porting toolchain.eclass every time someone decides there are too m=
any
EAPIs in the tree. Every change to that eclass breaks something (the trick=
is
to break things people don't care about any more and hope no one notices). =
I
don't know the ins and outs of glibc's eblits but I doubt they would be sim=
ple
to port either. I also don't know much about toolchain-binutils.eclass, but
it seems like it would be doable.
Other packages are already on later EAPIs.
There is no reason to remove EAPI 0. Leave it as the baseline that other
EAPI's are defined by. Most devs will not be dealing with these packages, =
so
it really doesn't affect them. Since there is no reason to remove it, we w=
ill
continue to use it.
