Considering Micha³'s plan to expose these functions to QA checks in
repositories, it would make sense to go ahead and add expose the aliases
in misc-functions.sh now. On the other hand, it makes sense to use the
prefixed versions in all internal portage code, for consistency. So, I'd
probably just wait until later to add the unprefixed versions. I don't
have a strong opinion though. The new patch set that you posted looks
good to me.
