13 Sorry, I misread PMS as PMs (portage, paludis, etc).
14
15 And, for support to be official for ebuilds or eclasses to query IUSE
16 (or other globals) within phase functions, then the 'spec' (PMS) is
17 probably all that needs to be 'fixed'. Right?
18
19 So, in EAPI=6, we propose something that'll make it official (ie a
20 querying function; or ensure that PMs can provide these variables
21 along with their proper 'effective' values, or their in-ebuild
22 'explicit' values, or whatever it is we want to say can be relied
23 upon, to the environment).
