I would be in favor of EAPI= or an even shorter variable name.

strlen(EBUILD_FORMAT) * 19546 = 249K
strlen(EAPI) * 19546 = 77K
strlen(EV) *  19546 = 39K

Where 19546 is the number if ebuilds in the tree as.

If you're that interested in saving space on variable names, why not
make an eclass called, say, a.eclass, that aliases all the existing
'long' names (DESCRIPTION, SRC_URI, RDEPEND, DEPEND, IUSE, src_unpack,
...) onto 'x', 'y', 'z' and so on? Yes, another eclass would make the
tree slightly bigger, but you'd save that many times over once you
changed a few hundred ebuilds to use it.
