Why? Just to annoy people who have successfully used kernel-2.eclass until now, and in my case for half a decade (or even more)? If you need help with maintaining the current eclass functionality, I'd be more than happy.

As I said in the bug, next time you plan a migration like that, it would be nice to send an heads up on the ML beforehand. Like you did in this case, but actually, _beforehand_ and not ~one month later.
