If you want mtime preservation mandated, someone needs to come up with
|
| 11 |
a fix for all those packages that end up dumping duff mtimes on the
|
| 12 |
system... There's progress towards that on the bug, but it's not there

No, an EAPI bump is necessary. Older (post-EAPI) Portage versions do

| 20 |
something different, so any ebuild relying upon particular behaviour is
|
| 21 |
already broken.
