I'm not against the tests themselves, I'm against forcing the tests on 
users.  Unless there's a clear scenario which warrants testing that cannot 
be anticipated during normal QA (beyond CFLAGS and USE), the ebuild should 
only do src_test if "maketest" is enabled.  It's not an official policy 
that I know of, but it probably should be.
