Ah okay; nevermind then, my concern didn't take that into account.
I like this technique because it allows us to build catalyst stages
based on stable packages while keeping the entire arch exp. Eg. with
mips, I have to build catalyst stages with KEYWORDS="mips ~mips". I'm
always on the bleeding edge of the latest packages committed to the
tree. Sometimes these builds fail because the ~arch edge is not well
tested for consistency and I have to resort to masking. It nicer to
just build on KEYWORDS="mips" and then just stabilize the versions that
are known to work.
