" [S]etting FEATUTES=-test USE=-test means rebuilding a lot of the installed packages. Instead, since USE=test is special already (it should only affect what happens in src_test(), right?) we might as well disable the test phase, tell the user in einfo, and be done with it. We could even write that to vdb so that on the next run, the package is re-emerged but with src_test() getting run properly this time.
