You can tell eix not to warn you about anything in the perl-experimental
overlay. Here's what I've done for the haskell overlay.
$ cat /etc/portage/package.nowarn
# Disable eix's REDUNDANT_IF_NO_CHANGE tests for the wildcard.
*/*::gentoo-haskell in_keywords no_change
You may have to adjust the "in_keywords no_change" part, depending on
the specific type of freak-out you're experiencing. The options are all
documented in the eix man page under package.nowarn.
