4 Are package managers expected to enforce this in the parsing stage (at
5 least within the first 20 lines) or is it OK to stop reading as soon
6 as you see a valid EAPI= line (so any conflicting later assignments
7 would get caught by making sure the post-source EAPI matches the
8 parsed one, but redundant assignments with the same EAPI would get
9 through)?
