Umm... what's the other KEYWORDS set, then?

I know of 3 actual sets, but they're different than you think.

arch - stable
~arch - package is stable, but the ebuilds needs testing
-arch - package is known not to work on this architecture

Beyond that, there is package.mask, which is supposed to be used for any
packages that have had only limited testing, shown poor stability, or
have unresolved security problems.
