15 As far as I can see, the proposed Python solution is just a concept,
16 where we already have near-beta eclasses that we *really* want to deploy
17 this year as they block the unmasking of Ruby 1.9.

19 ruby.eclass (prepall override) and incompatibilities with RubyGems that
20 should be resolved rather sooner than later.
