Erm, that's not really true. Consider that usually eclass functions are
called from ebuilds. At the time of calling, IUSE can basically contain
anything; if PM doesn't care much, that'd be probably last values set
-- ebuild values.
Remember than calling a sourced function does not re-evaluate the
eclass it was sourced from.
