I was under the impression repoman can commit changes to tree, not per
ebuild. In any case, feel free to edit the script to run repoman for
you. I'm sure it will finish over night without your presence at the
PC. - so no trouble at all.

I still have no idea how its any different to testing kdemultimedia
instead of kdemultimedia-meta in big endian and little endian installs
over three different userland ABIs. As far as I can tell, there isnt a
single difference.
