13 As R Hill already pointed out, WONTFIX means that the *bug* will never
14 be fixed. Fixing the *ebuild* would fix the bug, so WONTFIX isn't the
15 right keyword. Following your logic, all bugs dealing with ebuild should
16 be marked WONTFIX; in the ebuild's current state the bug wont be fixed.
17 Its just not a logical argument.

19 What Ciaran is actually doing is assigning the bug back to the person
20 that submitted the ebuild. So ASSIGNED or something new like
21 CONTRIB_ASSIGNED would be appropriate.
