wrong.  the point of the discussion on the gentoo dev mailing list is to go 
over the exported API for *ebuilds*, not for the implementation.  the 
implementation is already baked and really, Marijn shouldnt have sent it to 
the gentoo dev mailing list in the first place.  your pointless POSIX 
conversions have no place in the discussion.
