11 If you care about tests now, how do you know if foo.ebuild failed its
12 src_test because there's a problem or if src_test failed because no
13 one else has ever run it with test in FEATURES?

15 Also, I think you seem to be suggesting that gentoo is so well tested
16 that once something's marked stable, there's no point in testing it.
