Take a look at my bugreport: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=423149
And then follow through to the bug report it was marked as a duplicate
of. Gentoo devs, at least, know of the problem, but don't want to put
a workaround in the ebuild for it.
Also, even if the ebuild issued a warning, there's no guarantee the
warning would ever be made visible; the system is well and truly hosed
before the 'postinst' stage of the install, so who knows whether or
not the cache-and-show-later warnings would reach the user?
